When riding a moped vehicle, can you turn right onto the road marked this way?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo there is a wide street in town; on the right there is a blue sign showing a transit route - a lorry symbol with the inscription "3.5 t" and an arrow turning right. When riding a moped, you can turn right into the road marked like this - the answer is YES.
The transit route sign is not a prohibitory or mandatory sign - it only shows the direction of the transit route for the vehicles shown on it by a symbol, here lorries over 3.5 t, for example along a route that bypasses the centre. Other drivers may either go straight on or turn right, as long as other signs do not prohibit it. The photo also shows boards with the directions of travel from the lanes, so before turning right you take the right lane, from which the turn is allowed. Remember: signs with a red border prohibit, round blue signs give orders, and rectangular blue signs inform and advise.
Legal basis: Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 72 and § 73 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
