You are driving on the major road. Do you have the right of way over the cyclist in this situation?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video, you are driving on a priority road marked with sign D-1 with plate T-6a, on which the thick line runs from the bottom and turns right, and under it there is sign D-6b "pedestrian crossing and cycle crossing"; you are turning right, and a cyclist is riding across the cycle crossing on the entry you are driving into. You do not have right of way over him. The answer is: no.
The Road Traffic Act requires a driver approaching a cycle crossing to exercise particular caution and to give way to a cyclist who is on the crossing; a driver turning into an intersecting road also gives way to a cyclist going straight on along the part of the road that the driver is leaving. The right of way given by D-1 applies to vehicles at the junction, not to a cyclist on the cycle crossing. You slow down before the cycle crossing and let him go.
Legal basis: Art. 27 para. 1 and 1a of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 43 para. 1 and 2 and § 47 para. 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
