In the given situation you encounter the sign “Priority road”, accompanied by an additional panel which indicates to you the direction of the priority road. Intending to change the direction of travel to the left, you will travel on the priority road and you will have priority.
The truck leaves the priority road and will give priority to you because your trajectories intersect and you come from its right side. The car encounters one of the signs “Give way” or “Stop” and must give priority both to you and to the truck.
Therefore, in the given situation you can continue driving because you have priority.
The correct answer is: C
OUG* - Article 59
[...]
(2) At the intersections, the drivers of the vehicles who turn left are obliged to give priority to the vehicles with which they intersect and which travel from the right side.
(3) At the intersections with traffic directed by priority signs, the right‑hand priority rule is respected only when two vehicles are about to meet, each entering the intersection from a road signalled with a sign having the same meaning of priority or loss of priority.
[...]
Regulation** - Article 129
(1) The vehicle that travels on a public road on which one of the signs meaning: "Priority road", "Intersection with a non‑priority road" or "Priority over oncoming traffic" is installed has priority.
(2) When two vehicles are about to meet in an intersection directed by signs, coming from two public roads where signs with the same meaning are installed, the vehicle coming from the right has priority.
