In this situation, if you turn right, do you have the right of way over a vehicle approaching from the left?

Description

Art. 25 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137) in conjunction with § 5 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and Internal Affairs and Administration of July 31, 2002 on 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 that you are approaching an uncontrolled intersection. At such an intersection, the so-called right-hand rule applies, according to which the driver is obliged to yield to a vehicle approaching from the right, and therefore has priority over a vehicle approaching from the left. This issue is regulated by Art. 25 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act.
