Description

Act of 20 June 1997 - The Road Traffic Act. (Journal of Laws 1997 No. 98 item 602, as amended)

Explanation

Correct answer: No

A driver turning into an intersecting road is obliged to give way to a pedestrian crossing the carriageway of the road they are entering at the junction. According to Art. 26 para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act, the pedestrian has priority in this situation, regardless of which side they enter the carriageway from. The presence of a marked pedestrian crossing further reinforces this obligation.
