Very good question!
Indeed, car 1,even if it is allowed to turn left there, has to make way for the tram train that is approaching from behind because trams have such a long breaking distance, and thus car 1 must continue straight on even if the driver wanted to turn left there.
In case of an accident the damage is shared 50:50. So the driver of car 1 will get only 50 % of his damage compensated and has to compensate 50 % of the trams damage, including possible medical treatment costs for injured passengers.
Even when trams share the road with cars, think of them as if they would use their own lane which is not your lane as car driver.
Yes, I am coming. So it is Penguin, Neal and Dan D so far.
I will phone Penguin later the week about the meeting and plans.
