In this situation, does the traffic police officer permit you to turn left at the intersection?

Description

Art. 5 para. 1 and 2 of the Act of June 20, 1997 - Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended) in conjunction with § 9 of Annex No. 1 to the Regulation of the Minister of Internal Affairs and Administration of July 6, 2010 on traffic control (Journal of Laws No. 123, item 840 as amended).

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

In the visible situation, the police officer is standing sideways to you, which according to the regulations is a signal allowing entry into the intersection (equivalent to a green signal). Such a posture of the person directing traffic opens the traffic for your direction of travel. This means that you have the right to enter the intersection and perform a left turn manoeuvre.
