You intend to go straight across the intersection. Are you obliged to use the left indicator?

Description

Art. 22 para. 5 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended)

Explanation

Correct answer: No

No, in this situation, there is no obligation to use an indicator. According to Art. 22 para. 5 of the Road Traffic Act, we use an indicator when we intend to change direction or lane. Driving straight through a junction is not a manoeuvre to change direction, even if in doing so you are leaving the priority road.
