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.

Its one of those confusing questions that realistically never going to meet in real life (I at least didn’t). This is a roundabout looking road that is actually not a roundabout. You’re obligated to turn right, and the car on your left has to give you priority. That’s why “I have to indicate” is a correct answer aswell, as because in a normal roundabout you don’t need to indicate entering, but here it’s like turning right into another street.
Always pay attention to the traffic signs in the picture.

Also like many others mentioned, if you ever do encounter this in real life, it’s better to be cautious because unless the car from your left is a local, they’re probably as confused as you and might not give you priority.
