In view of this sign at a narrow pass, must you stop if a vehicle is approaching from the opposite direction?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is affirmative. The sign shown is R-5 (Priority for oncoming traffic). This sign prohibits entry into a narrow pass if doing so forces vehicles traveling in the opposite direction to stop or maneuver. Basically, you do not have priority. However, the rule specifies that if the pass is wide enough for both vehicles to cross without risk and without the oncoming vehicle having to brake, stopping would not be mandatory. That is why the correct answer is 'Yes, if you can't pass without making them brake'. Do not confuse this with the square blue sign (R-6), which is the one that would give priority to us.
