In this situation, if you go straight, do you have the right of way over the vehicle approaching from the right?

Description

Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137) § 43 para. 1 in conjunction with § 1 para. 2 pt. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws of 2002, No. 170, item 1393, as amended)
Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

In the situation shown, the D-1 'priority road' sign along with the T-6a plate informs you that the priority road runs straight ahead. This means that the vehicle approaching from the right is on a subordinate road and is obliged to yield to you. According to Art. 5 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act, road signs take precedence over general traffic rules, which is why the so-called right-hand rule does not apply in this situation.
