What do the white markings on the road mean in this situation?

- highlight a duty to give-way due to the right-before-left rule

- indicate a traffic-calming zone

- are a warning about the poor state of the road surface

Here is Our AI Assistant's Explanation

You answered correctly. The white triangles on the road are known as "shark teeth" (Haifischzähne) in Germany. These markings highlight a duty to give way because of the right-before-left rule at intersections. They serve as an extra warning reminding you to yield to vehicles coming from the right. Knowing this helps you react correctly at such intersections in the future. The other options do not apply: these markings do not indicate a traffic-calming zone or warn about road surface conditions.
