The intersection in the image is controlled with regulatory priority signs, under each sign there is installed an additional panel that informs us about the direction of the priority road, the thickened line indicating the direction of the priority road.

The truck comes from the road without priority, encountering the sign “Give way”, and must give way to the car and the motorcycle that come from the priority road.

The car and the motorcycle encounter the sign “Priority road”. The car wants to continue to drive in the direction of the priority road. The motorcycle wants to turn left, thus leaving the priority road. Considering that one of the two vehicles will leave the priority road, they will intersect their trajectories and will not be able to pass at the same time, thus creating a situation of equality. In this situation the rule of right-hand priority will apply and the motorcycle will give priority to the car, because it comes from the right side of the motorcycle.

Therefore, the passing order through this intersection is the following: first through the intersection will pass the car, followed by the motorcycle, and last through the intersection will pass the truck.

The correct answer is: A
