In this situation you are behind the wheel of the red car and you intend to turn left in this intersection which is directed through regulatory priority signs. Even if only on the non‑priority road are installed regulatory priority signs, more exactly 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 non‑priority roads are also encountered in reality, these being intersections with directed traffic.
The tram comes from the non‑priority road, encountering the sign “Give way”, and must give priority to the red motor vehicle you are driving and to the bus, these coming from the priority road.
The red car you are driving and the bus come from the priority road, but because you want to turn left, you must give the bus priority, because during the left turn the bus comes from your right side.
Therefore, being behind the wheel of the red car, you will give priority to the bus, and the order of passing is the following: the bus, then the red car you are driving, and last through this intersection will pass the tram.
The correct answer is: B
OUG* - Article 59
[...]
(2) In 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) In the intersections with traffic directed through priority signs, the right priority rule is respected only when two vehicles are going 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 is installed one of the signs having the meaning: "Priority road", "Intersection with a non‑priority road" or "Priority over oncoming traffic" has priority.
(2) When two vehicles are going to meet in an intersection directed through signs, coming from two public roads where are installed signs with the same meaning, the vehicle that comes from the right has priority.
