You are driving a vehicle in the built-up area. Is it prohibited in the presented situation to use the horn?

Description

Art. 29 para. 1 and para. 2 pt. 2 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2005 No. 108, item 908, as amended).

Explanation

Correct answer: No

In the final stage of the recording, a vehicle is seen pulling out from the right, cutting you off by entering directly in front of your car, which creates a real risk of collision. Although you are in a built-up area, using the horn in such a situation is not prohibited. According to Art. 29 of the Road Traffic Act, the prohibition on using the horn in the city does not apply when it is necessary to warn of immediate danger.
