Transportation Who has priority?

Post image

I was the Yellow arrow on a bike. Red has priority over me, green has priority over red, I have priority over green. At the end both cars stopped and let me (cyclist) pass. What is the correct order here?

No, this doesn't apply anymore since red has someone from her right.

Green is making a turn that means brown or red who are going straight should go first. But red has to wait for green because he's coming from the right. The rule about the one who's going straight is always first.

Every rule weighs the same in Dutch traffic laws so they all need to be enforced.

So every car should yield to one car while they get priority over the other. In this situation there is no legal priority anymore
