In this situation, can you drive straight ahead through the intersection?

Explanation

Correct answer: No

The traffic light is showing a red signal, which prohibits driving past the signal. When traffic lights are in operation, their signals take precedence over road signs, including the A-7 'give way' sign visible under the signal. For this reason, the driver is required to stop the vehicle and wait for a signal permitting them to proceed.
