In this situation, are you allowed to enter the intersection?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video, we are driving a tram on tracks towards a roundabout. Next to the track there are the signs A-7 "give way" and C-12 "roundabout", and below them tram traffic lights showing a vertical bar; the cars on the roadway have a red light. In this situation, you have the right to enter the junction - the answer is YES.
A vertical bar means permission to drive beyond the traffic lights. Traffic light signals take priority over signs that regulate right of way, so the sign A-7 does not apply while the traffic lights are working. You enter the junction, watching for pedestrians and for vehicles that may still be leaving the junction.
Legal basis: Art. 5 para. 3 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 104 para. 1 point 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
