In this intersection the traffic lights have in operation the intermittent yellow colour signal which obliges the drivers of vehicles to move with reduced speed and to respect the meaning of the road signalling and of the traffic rules applicable in that place. In this situation the order of passing through this intersection will be established based on the regulatory priority signs which are installed next to the traffic lights.
Even if only on the road without priority regulatory priority signs are installed, namely the sign "Give way", this intersection is one with directed traffic.
We draw attention that such intersections in which the regulatory priority signs are installed only on the road or, as the case may be, on the roads without priority are also encountered in reality, these being intersections with directed traffic.
The red car comes from the road without priority, encountering the sign "Give way", and must give priority to the green and blue cars, these coming from the priority road.
The green and blue cars come from the priority road, but for the blue car which wishes to turn left, it must give the green car priority, because during the left turn the green car comes to it from the right side.
Therefore, the order of passing is the following: first will pass the green car, second will pass the blue car, and the last through this intersection will pass the red car.
The correct answer is: C
Regulation** - Article 53
[...]
(2) The intermittent yellow colour signal allows passing, the driver of the vehicle being obliged to move with reduced speed, to respect the meaning of the road signalling and of the traffic rules applicable in that place.
OUG* - Article 59
[...]
(2) In the intersections, the drivers of vehicles which turn left are obliged to give priority to the vehicles with which they intersect and which move from the right side.
(3) In the intersections with directed traffic through priority signs, the right-hand priority rule is respected only in the case in which two vehicles are about to meet, each entering the intersection from a road signalled with a sign having the same meaning of priority or of loss of priority.

Regulation** - Article 129
(1) The vehicle which moves on a public road on which is installed one of the signs having the meaning: "Priority road", "Intersection with a road without priority" or "Priority over oncoming traffic" has priority.
(2) When two vehicles are about to meet in an intersection directed through signs, coming from two public roads where signs with the same meaning are installed, the vehicle which comes from the right has priority.
