Explanation

The intersection in the image is with uncontrolled traffic, a situation in which the rule of right‑hand priority will apply. However, through this intersection also moves a tram, which benefits from “special priority”, the drivers of vehicles being obliged to give priority to the tram because it moves on rails through an uncontrolled intersection. The tram will lose priority in intersections with uncontrolled traffic when it makes a left turn.

Given that the tram benefits from “special priority”, it has priority over the two cars and will go first through this intersection.

After the tram passes, the other two cars will apply the rule of right‑hand priority to establish the order of passing. Thus, the yellow car will give priority to the red car because it comes from its right side.

Therefore, the order of passing is the following: the tram, followed by the red car, and the last through this intersection will go the yellow car.

The correct answer is: A
