If you turn left at this intersection, do you have the right of way over the vehicle approaching from the left?

Description

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

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

The A-5 'intersection' sign visible on the right warns of an uncontrolled intersection where priority is not regulated by command or information signs. In such a situation, the right-hand rule applies, meaning that a vehicle approaching from your left must yield to you because you are on its right side. According to Art. 25 para. 1, when performing a left turn, you are not obliged to yield to vehicles from the left.
