In the visible situation, when transmitting this light signal do you have the right to turn left at the intersection?

Description

Art. 5 para. 1 of the Act of 20 June 1997 – Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws 2012, item 1137 and 1448) and § 22 para. 1 pt. 1 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and 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

In the visible situation, a B-21 prohibitory sign 'no left turn' is placed above the traffic light. Traffic signals only override signs regulating the right of way, but they do not invalidate prohibitory signs. Therefore, despite the green light signal, a left turn manoeuvre is prohibited at this location.
