In this situation, are you obliged to apply the rule of limited trust?

In the video, you are driving along a city street and approaching a pedestrian crossing marked with sign D-6; beyond the crossing, away from the zebra stripes, a man is crossing the roadway, and a dark car is pulling out from the right. In this situation, you are obliged to apply the principle of limited trust. The answer is: yes.

The Road Traffic Act states that a road user has the right to expect that others obey the rules, unless the circumstances indicate that they may behave differently. A pedestrian who crosses next to the zebra crossing is already breaking the rules, so you cannot assume that he will suddenly stop; the car pulling out from the right may also fail to notice you. You slow down before the crossing, keep your foot over the brake and drive through only when the pedestrian has left the roadway and the driver on the right has stopped.
