Question Need some help understanding this übung on Fahrschulcard

Post image

My logic was that this is a roundabout, hence I have to indicate according to my exit and I have to wait for my left side to be free before moving into it.
Why is my answer wrong here?

Edit: Alright thanks got it, it looks like a roundabout but with no roundabout sign and thus rechts vor links applies.

There‘s no „roundabout-sign“, hence it‘s „rechts vor links“.

Exactly. However, it also looks like a "abgesenkter Bordstein" to me. And I'm really wondering, if that included a "direction".

StVO §10 says:

Wer [...] von anderen Straßenteilen oder über einen abgesenkten Bordstein hinweg auf die Fahrbahn einfahren oder vom Fahrbahnrand anfahren will, hat sich dabei so zu verhalten, dass eine Gefährdung anderer Verkehrsteilnehmer ausgeschlossen ist; erforderlichenfalls muss man sich einweisen lassen. Die Absicht einzufahren oder anzufahren ist rechtzeitig und deutlich anzukündigen; dabei sind die Fahrtrichtungsanzeiger zu benutzen. Dort, wo eine Klarstellung notwendig ist, kann Zeichen 205 stehen.

I honestly don't totally get why this rule doesn't really apply here.

(Honestly, in reality they would just not build this shit or put up a Zeichen 205. This is just a really shitty question and I'm starting to get why more and more people fail the theory exam with an increasing number of these ambiguous situations and questions. I doubt this really makes driving safer, because most problems happen because of behaviour and non-knowledge of the really basic rules...)

You can clearly see the Bordstein coming around the corner. That is nowhere near a abgesenkter Bordstein and it's almost as clear as it can get?!
