You intend to change the lane. Are you obliged in this situation to signal it earlier?

Description
Art. 22 para. 5 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended)
Explanation
Correct answer: Yes
Yes, any intention to change lanes must be signalled sufficiently in advance. According to Art. 22 para. 5 of the Road Traffic Act, the driver is obliged to signal such a manoeuvre early and clearly. This gives other road users time to react and is fundamental to safe driving on multi-lane roads, such as the one in the picture.
