Question 616 of 1208

How do you proceed if you are in the red car and notice that from the road without priority a column with priority regime is approaching?

A you continue your way, because you have priority of passage in the roundabout;
B you stop and give priority to the column with priority regime;
C you turn right and leave the intersection.

Explanation

The column with priority regime will always have in operation special audible and light warning signals of red colour, these oblige the participants in traffic to stop in the direction of travel as close as possible to the edge of the road, and when it is encountered in intersections, the participants in traffic have the obligation to give it priority of passage.

When you approach the entrance of an intersection simultaneously with a column with priority regime, you have the obligation to give it priority of passage, regardless of whether it comes from a road with priority or without priority.

In this situation you approach the entrance of an intersection simultaneously with a column with priority regime, this having in operation special audible and light warning signals of red colour, you have the obligation to give it priority of passage, regardless of whether this column with priority regime comes from a road with priority or without priority.

After its passing you can continue your movement, respecting the traffic rules for the intersections directed by regulatory priority signs.
