Are you joining the traffic by driving into the transverse road in this situation?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video you are leaving a small street on a housing estate onto an intersecting road; at the exit there are signs D-41 "end of residential area" and B-22 "no right turn", and a silver car is passing along the intersecting road. Entering a road from a residential area is joining traffic (włączanie się do ruchu). The answer is: yes.
The Road Traffic Act states that joining traffic takes place when you start driving after parking or stopping, and when you enter a road from a property, from a roadside facility, from a road that is not a public road and from a residential area; a driver joining traffic must exercise particular caution and give way to another vehicle or road user. The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign D-41 marks the exit from a residential area. So you give way to everyone - cars from both sides, cyclists and pedestrians on the pavement - and because of B-22 you may only turn left.
Legal basis: Art. 17 para. 1 point 1 and para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 58 para. 1 and § 22 para. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
