In this situation, do you have the right of way at the narrowed section of the roadway?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a road under repair on the outskirts of a town; the roadway narrows to one lane between traffic cones and road barriers, a white lorry is coming from the opposite direction, and on the right there is the round sign B-31 with a red arrow pointing up and a black arrow pointing down, and a yellow board with a bent arrow. On this narrowed section you do not have right of way - you must give way to vehicles coming from the opposite direction. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign B-31 "priority for oncoming vehicles" prohibits drivers from driving or walking onto a narrowed section of the roadway if this would force drivers who are on that section or approaching it from the opposite direction to stop. The red arrow on the sign is your direction - the one that waits; drivers coming from the opposite direction see the blue sign D-5 with a white arrow and have right of way. You stop before the narrowing at the right-hand edge, let the lorry and all vehicles that have already entered the section or are approaching it go through, and move off only when you will not force anyone to brake.
Legal basis: § 25 and § 46 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
