You intend to turn left. Are you obliged to yield the right of way to the vehicle approaching from the right?

💡 Explanation

Correct answer: YES

🔍 Situation analysis: You are approaching an intersection where the right-of-way is defined by signs (a priority road that curves). While planning to turn left, you must maintain a high level of vigilance regarding other road users.

📖 Explanation of the rule: According to basic traffic regulations, when you are changing your direction to the left, you are obliged to yield the right-of-way to all vehicles approaching from your right, as well as to vehicles coming from the opposite direction that are moving straight or turning right. In this case, a vehicle on your right may cross your path, and the lack of a clear priority sign in relation to this specific user (or the general right-hand rule) dictates that you must yield.

💡 Tip: During your driving test, if your left-turn path crosses with a road where another vehicle is traveling (especially one from your right), always adopt a defensive driving style. It is safer to wait a moment and confirm the intentions of other drivers rather than risk a collision by forcing the right-of-way.
