In the presented situation, did the drivers, in accordance with the regulations, facilitate the free passage of the emergency vehicle, by creating the so-called "emergency corridor"?

Description

Art. 9. para. 2 pt. 1 of the Act of 20.06.1997 Road Traffic Act, consolidated text Journal of Laws of 2020 item 110.

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

The graphic shows the correct behaviour of drivers on a roadway with two traffic lanes who, in congested conditions, have formed a passage for an emergency vehicle. Drivers in the left lane have moved to the left edge, and drivers in the right lane to the right edge of the roadway. This action is consistent with the definition of a 'rescue corridor' described in Art. 9 of the Road Traffic Act.
