About Unequal-rank junction: B6, B7 and the priority road: which statement is WRONG?
- 'If you are required to stop, the sign is not B6 but B7.' B6 = give way to crossing traffic without a mandatory full stop; only B7 forces a stop.
- ✓ Once you have passed sign B1 (start of the priority road), you keep priority at every following junction until the end of your journey.
- At a junction of an unpaved and a paved road, the driver on the unpaved road gives way to the road user on the paved road, even if that is a horse rider.
- At a junction of an unpaved road with a paved road, the driver on the unpaved road gives way to the one on the paved road, even if that is a horse rider.
Correct answer: Once you have passed sign B1 (start of the priority road), you keep priority at every following junction until the end of your journey.
Explanation
Sign B1 applies 'until sign B2 indicates the end of the priority road'. Priority on a priority road is therefore a bounded stretch between B1 and B2, not a permanent status
