Do you have the right of way over the vehicle approaching from the left in this situation?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are approaching a roundabout with signs A-7 "give way" and C-12 "roundabout"; a car is coming around the roundabout from the left. You do not have right of way over it - right of way belongs to vehicles that are already on the roundabout. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign C-12 together with sign A-7 means that a driver already within the junction has right of way over a driver entering the junction. Without sign A-7, the right-hand rule would apply on the roundabout, which means that an entering driver would have right of way over those driving around it - so you always check whether the triangle A-7 stands next to C-12. Here it does, so you stop or slow down before the line, let the car on the roundabout pass and enter only into a free gap, without forcing anyone to brake.
Legal basis: § 36 para. 1 and 2 and § 5 para. 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
