Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a priority street marked with sign D-1 with plate T-6a, on which the thick line turns left - the priority road turns off to the left. You intend to turn left, staying on this road, and the driver of a vehicle approaching from the opposite direction, from the minor road, wants to turn right. You are not obliged to give way to him. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that plate T-6a shows the actual course of the priority road, and a driver on a minor road gives way to vehicles travelling on the priority road. You are both turning into the same street, so be careful: you turn first, but you watch whether the other driver is waiting, because for him the right turn is short and tempting.
Legal basis: § 43 para. 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 25 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
