Does this sign indicate that the road you are taking is a minor road?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the photo you are driving on a road through a town, lane direction arrows are painted on the roadway, and on the right there is sign D-1 "priority road" - a yellow diamond with a white border. The signs do not show that you are on a minor road; on the contrary, you are driving on a priority road. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign D-1 marks the beginning or continuation of a priority road; a minor road would be shown by sign A-7 or B-20. Drivers from intersecting roads must give way to you, but the principle of limited trust still applies - you drive through the junction watching the approaches. The arrows on the roadway only show the permitted directions from the individual lanes.
Legal basis: § 43 para. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 4 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
