You intend to turn left. Have you got priority over the oncoming vehicle going straight?

Description

Art. 5 and art. 25 para. 1 of the Act of 20 June 1997, the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended) and § 95 para. 1 pt. 1 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and of Internal Affairs and Administration of 31 July 2002 on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws No. 170, item 1393, as amended).
Explanation

Correct answer: No

No. At an intersection with a general S-1 signal (green light without arrows), a driver turning left must give way to vehicles coming from the opposite direction that are going straight or turning right. According to Art. 25 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act, a green light only permits entry beyond the signal but does not release you from the obligation to give way.
