Does the plate under this sign indicate the real course of the road with the right of way across the intersection?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video you are driving on a road that bends to the left; on the right there is sign D-1 "priority road" with plate T-6a, on which a thick line turns left and a thin one branches off diagonally to the right. This plate shows the actual course of the priority road through the junction. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals provides that sign D-1 means the beginning or continuation of a priority road, and plate T-6a or T-6b placed under it shows, respectively, the actual course of the priority road through the junction or the layout of the minor roads. The thick line on the plate is the priority road - here it leads to the left, so driving along the bend you keep right of way over drivers coming out of the minor road on the right, but when turning left you signal this with your indicator. Anyone who leaves the bend to the right leaves the priority road and must let the vehicles driving along the bend pass.
