Should you limit your trust to this traffic user in this situation and start braking?

Description

Annex 1 § 1 pt. 2 letter f to the Regulation of the Minister of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy of 13 July 2012 on the training of persons applying for a driving licence, instructors and lecturers (Journal of Laws, item 1019 of 14 September 2012) in conjunction with art. 3.1 and 4 of the Act of 20.06.1997 "Road Traffic Act" (Journal of Laws of 2005, No. 108, item 908, as amended).
Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

Yes, in this situation, you should apply the principle of limited trust and start braking. The agricultural tractor, which is partially on the roadway, could pull out into traffic at any moment, and its driver might not see your vehicle. According to Art. 4 of the Road Traffic Act, you should be prepared for the mistakes of other road users. Reducing your speed is a sensible reaction to a potential hazard.
