At the unsignalled intersection of two roads of different categories the rule of priority to the right does not apply. Priority will be given to the vehicles that move on “the superior road”. Therefore, when you come from a county road and you want to enter a national road, you have the obligation to give priority to the vehicles that move on the national road.
When encountering the sign “Priority road” you are NOT obliged to give priority. When encountering this sign you have priority.
You have the obligation to give priority to the pedestrian who crosses the public road, through a specially designated place, marked and properly signalled or at the green colour of the traffic light intended for him, when he is on the direction of travel of the vehicle. But in answer C it is not specified if the pedestrian is crossing on a pedestrian crossing. Even if the pedestrian is on a pedestrian crossing marked and properly signalled, you still do not have the obligation to give him priority, because he is on the opposite direction of travel, as specified in the answer.
