You intend to turn left and the driver of the oncoming vehicle intends to turn right. Do you have to yield the right of way to him?
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), in conjunction with § 1 para. 2 and § 43 para. 1 and 2 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, you have the right of way in this situation. The D-1 "Priority road" sign together with the T-6a plate indicates that the priority road turns left. As you are turning left, you are continuing along the priority road, whereas the vehicle from the opposite direction, by turning right, is leaving it. A vehicle remaining on the priority road always has right of way over a vehicle that is leaving it.
