You want to continue driving straight ahead. What is the correct course of action in this situation?

Your answer is correct because, according to German traffic rules, when you want to continue straight ahead in this situation, you must give way to vehicles already turning or crossing if they have priority. In this case, allowing the red vehicle to turn and the electric scooter to cross first shows that you are respecting the right-of-way rules. You should not proceed before these road users because they have precedence at the junction.

The key rule to remember is that at intersections and junctions, you must yield to other road users who are advantaged either by traffic signs, signals, or their position when it is their turn to go first. Being courteous and patient ensures safety and smooth traffic flow. Therefore, options 1 and 2 are necessary actions before you can proceed. Option 3 is incorrect here because you are not the first to cross in this scenario.
