In this situation, are you required to give way to the cyclist?

Description

Art. 5 of the Act of 20 June 1997, Road Traffic Law (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended) and § 97 para. 1 and 2, in conjunction with § 87 para. 1 pt. 1, § 72 para. 2 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and of Internal Affairs and Administration of 31 July 2002 on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws No. 170, item 1393, as amended)
Explanation

Correct answer: No

No, in this situation, you are not obliged to give way. The S-3 directional traffic light, displaying a green arrow for driving straight ahead, guarantees a so-called collision-free passage. This means that the traffic management is designed so that when you have a green light, the cyclist has a red signal at the same time, so you have the right of way.
