The driver of the oncoming car intends to turn left. 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 – Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended), in conjunction with § 1 para. 2 pt. 2 and § 21 para. 1 and 5 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and 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: Yes

You are approaching an intersection marked with the B-20 'STOP' sign and a T-6a plaque, which indicates the actual course of the priority road. The diagram on the plaque (thick line) informs you that the priority road comes from the opposite direction and turns left (from your perspective). This means the vehicle approaching from ahead is on the priority road, while you are on a minor road; therefore, you are obliged to give way to it in accordance with § 21 para. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals.
