When entering this intersection, do you have priority over the vehicle on the left?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a residential street behind a dark car and approaching a junction; on the right there is sign A-7 "give way", and on the traffic island in front of you there is sign C-9; before the junction there is a pedestrian crossing. When entering this junction, you do not have right of way over the vehicle on the left - you give way to everyone on the intersecting road. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign A-7 "give way" warns of a junction with a priority road, and a minor road is a road on which the driver must give way to those travelling on the main road; sign C-9 requires you to pass to the right of the traffic island. The right-hand rule, which would give you right of way over the vehicle on the left, applies only at junctions without signs - A-7 cancels it. A driver on the priority road drives fast and does not expect someone to pull out right in front of his bonnet, so you slow down before the junction, look left and right, stop before the give-way line if necessary and enter when you will not force anyone to brake.
Legal basis: § 5 para. 5, § 1 para. 2 point 2 and § 35 para. 1 point 9 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
