When entering such a marked intersection, are you obliged to yield priority to vehicles driving on it?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo a tram is approaching a roundabout; next to the track there are signs A-7 "give way", C-12 "roundabout" and a pedestrian crossing sign, and pedestrians are walking across the crossing. When entering a junction marked like this, you must give way to vehicles that are on it - the answer is YES.
Sign C-12 together with sign A-7 means that a driver who is on the junction has right of way over a driver entering it. Sign A-7 also applies to trams - the right of way of a rail vehicle over other vehicles applies only where the right of way is not determined by signs. So you let vehicles driving on the roadway of the roundabout go, and at the crossing you give way to pedestrians who are on it. You enter only when you will not force anyone to brake.
