Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a wide city street through a section with roadworks: yellow lane direction arrows are painted on the roadway, under which you can see the old white markings, and further on there are red and white boards and barriers. You are obliged to follow the yellow road markings. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that if there are white and yellow signs on the road that show different ways of behaving, the driver is obliged to follow the yellow signs. Yellow markings are introduced for the period of a changed traffic arrangement, and they show the current layout of the lanes. You read the yellow arrows in advance and move into the correct lane before the lines between the lanes become solid.
Legal basis: § 85 para. 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
