Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

On narrow stretches with no priority signs and on level terrain, if there is doubt about who entered first (or they enter at the same time), the right of way is resolved according to the order of precedence established in the General Traffic Regulations (Article 62): Special vehicles and special transports exceeding weights or dimensions. Combined vehicles (except passenger cars with a light trailer). Animal-drawn vehicles. Passenger cars with a trailer of up to 750 kg and motorhomes. Collective passenger transport vehicles (buses). Trucks, tractor units and vans. Passenger cars and car-derived vehicles. Since buses are in 5th place and trucks in 6th, the bus has the right of way over the truck. Therefore, it is the truck that is obliged to reverse. The criterion of lower maximum authorized mass, length or width applies only when vehicles of the same type in the priority list meet.
