You intend to turn left, and the driver of the oncoming vehicle intends to go straight on. Do you have the right of way over him?
Description
Art. 5 para. 1, art. 25 para. 1 of the Act of 20 June 1997 Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended) and § 1 para. 2 pt. 2, § 5 para. 5 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
You do not have the right of way. According to the general rule, a driver turning left is obliged to give way to a vehicle approaching from the opposite direction and travelling straight ahead or turning right. This obligation arises from Art. 25 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act. The A-7 'give way' sign visible in the video additionally obliges you to give way to vehicles on the intersecting road.
