In this situation, are you informed of travelling on a one-way road?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a street in a housing estate past buildings and parked cars, and on the right there is a blue round sign with a white arrow pointing up - C-5 "go straight on". This sign does not tell you that you are on a one-way road; a one-way road is marked by the rectangular sign D-3. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign C-5 "go straight on" requires the driver to travel in the direction of the arrow and applies at the nearest junction or at the place where it is possible to change direction, while sign D-3 "one-way road" marks the beginning or continuation of a road or roadway on which traffic moves in one direction. Both signs have a white arrow on a blue background, but C-5 is round and D-3 is rectangular. The difference has practical effects: beyond C-5 you can still meet vehicles coming from the opposite direction, so the normal rules for a two-way roadway apply to you, not the easier rules of a one-way road. The "go straight on" sign only means that at the nearest junction you will not turn left or right.
Legal basis: § 35 para. 1 point 5 and para. 2 and § 44 para. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
