The intersection in the image is one in which the traffic is directed with regulatory priority signs. Even if only on the non‑priority road regulatory priority signs are installed, more precisely the “Give way” sign, 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 bus comes from the non‑priority road, encountering the “Give way” sign, and must give priority to the car and the truck, these coming from the priority road.
The car and the truck come from the priority road, but because the car wishes to turn left, it must give the truck priority, because during the left turn, the truck comes to it from the right side.
Therefore, the passing order is the following: first will pass the truck, second will pass the car, and last through this intersection will pass the bus.
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 they intersect and which move from the right side.
(3) In 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 moves on a public road on which one of the signs having the 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 that comes from the right has priority.
