Explanation

The intersection in the image is controlled with regulatory priority signs, under each sign there is installed an additional panel that indicates the direction of the priority road.

Tram 2 comes from a road without priority, encountering the sign “Give way”, and must give way to the car and tram 1, which come from the priority road.

The car and tram 1 come from the priority road, both encountering the sign “Priority road”. The car wants to continue to travel straight ahead on the priority road. Tram 1 wants to travel straight ahead, thus leaving the priority road. Considering that one of the two vehicles will leave the priority road, they will intersect their trajectories and will not be able to pass at the same time, thus creating an equality situation. In this situation the right‑hand priority rule will apply and tram 1 will give priority to the car, because it comes from the right side of tram 1.

Therefore, the first to pass through this intersection will be the car, and the order of passing through this intersection is the following: the car, followed by tram 1, and last will pass tram 2.

The correct answer is: C
