If you turn right, do you have the right of way over a vehicle approaching from the opposite direction?

Show the correct answer

Correct answer

NO

Explanation

In the video you are driving along a cobbled street in a town and approaching a junction; before it, on the right, there is sign A-7 "give way" with plate T-6c; the thick line on the plate runs from the entry opposite and turns right, and your street is a minor road. You intend to turn right, and a car is coming from the opposite direction. You do not have right of way over it. The answer is: no.

The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign A-7 warns of a junction with a priority road, and its name "give way" tells you directly what to do - the Road Traffic Act requires you to obey signs, so you give way to drivers travelling on that road; plate T-6c under the sign shows its actual route. The oncoming vehicle is travelling on the priority road, which turns into the same street that you want to enter, so your paths cross, and you are on the minor road. You stop before the junction and turn when the oncoming car has completed its manoeuvre.

Legal basis: § 5 para. 5 and 7 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
