You intend to continue going straight. Are you obliged to yield the right of way to the approaching vehicle?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video you are leaving a small housing estate street between shop pavilions and driving onto a public road; on the left there is sign D-47 "end of internal road", and a van is approaching from the left. Leaving an internal road is joining traffic (włączanie się do ruchu), so when going straight on, you must give way to it. The answer is: yes.
The Road Traffic Act treats entering a road from a road that is not a public road as joining traffic, and it requires a driver joining traffic to exercise particular caution and give way to another vehicle or road user. The Regulation on road signs and signals specifies that D-47 marks the exit from an internal road onto a public road. The right-hand rule does not apply here - you stop and let everyone pass.
Legal basis: Art. 17 para. 1 point 1 and para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 58 para. 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
