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

Description

Art. 5 para. 1 in conjunction with art. 25 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 A-7 'yield' sign visible on the right side along with the T-6c plate indicates that you are on a subordinate road. The thick line on the plate marks the course of the priority road, which leads from the left in the opposite direction (straight ahead). This means that the vehicle approaching from the opposite direction is on the priority road, so you are obliged to yield to it.
