Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo, you can see a white square board with a black letter "W", which is the sign AT-2 "tram-triggered traffic lights". This sign warns that you are approaching a junction where the tram triggers a separate phase for itself - the answer is YES.
At such a junction, the traffic lights react to the approaching tram and only then switch on a proceed signal for it. AT signs are additional warning signs for tram drivers. They are placed on the right-hand side of the track, above the track or between the tracks on the poles of the overhead contact line, 50 to 200 m from the dangerous place, and they oblige the tram driver travelling on that track to exercise particular caution. Before the vertical bar comes on, you must be ready to stop.
