Is it mandatory in the presented situation to stop before entering the intersection?

Description

§ 97. para. 1 and 3 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 situation shown, the S-3 directional signal displays a green light, which permits entry into the intersection. Therefore, you are not required to stop before entering, which would only be necessary in the case of a red signal or if it were impossible to continue driving. According to § 97 para. 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals, this signal also indicates a collision-free passage in the indicated direction.
