The meanings of the signals of the traffic lights will be respected with priority compared to the meanings of the regulatory priority signs. In the given situation, encountering a traffic light in operation, you will respect the meaning of the signal of the traffic light, this being the green colour which allows you to pass. The “Give way” sign installed next to the traffic light will be respected in the situation in which the traffic light is not working or when it has the intermittent yellow colour signal operating.
Therefore, in this situation you can enter the intersection without giving priority, because the green signal of the traffic light will allow passing.
