In this situation, are you obliged to apply the rule of limited trust?

Description

Art. 3 para. 1 and Art. 4 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137) § 5 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

According to Art. 4 of the Road Traffic Act, every road user has the right to assume that others will comply with the regulations, unless circumstances indicate the possibility of other behaviour. Approaching a pedestrian crossing where a pedestrian is present is precisely such a circumstance. In this situation, you must exercise special caution and be prepared for the possibility that the pedestrian might, for example, suddenly step onto the roadway.
