At this intersection, can you go straight from the left lane?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo you are approaching a roundabout marked with signs A-7 and C-12; there are two lanes on your roadway: in the left one a combined arrow for straight on and left is painted, in the right one - right. At this junction you may go straight on from the left lane. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that lane direction arrows mean that driving from the lane is allowed only in the direction shown by the arrow, and combined arrow symbols mean permission to move in the directions shown by all the arrows. The left lane has two arrowheads - straight on and left - so going straight on through the roundabout is allowed from it. When entering the roundabout, you give way to vehicles already driving on it, because sign C-12 together with A-7 gives them right of way, and before the entry you let pedestrians on the crossing go.
Legal basis: § 87 para. 1 and § 36 para. 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
