If you turn right, do you have the right of way over a vehicle approaching from the opposite direction?

Description

Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137) § 5 para. 5 and 7 in conjunction with § 1 para. 2, and § 2 para. 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws of 2002, No. 170, item 1393, as amended)

Explanation

Correct answer: No

The visible A-7 'yield' sign along with the T-6c plate indicates that the priority road (marked with a thick line) runs from the left towards the straight ahead direction. This means that the vehicle approaching from the opposite direction is on the priority road, while you are on a subordinate road. According to § 5 para. 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals, you are obliged to yield to vehicles moving on the priority road.
