You are driving on a multi-lane street and notice that a vehicle traveling in the adjacent lane has come to a stop directly in front of a marked crosswalk. Your view of the crosswalk is partially blocked by the stopped vehicle. What action must you legally take as you approach?

  1. Stop prior to reaching the crosswalk and ensure no pedestrians are crossing before proceeding.Cevap
  2. B
    Pass the stopped vehicle at the posted speed limit if your traffic signal remains green.
  3. C
    Honk your horn to warn any hidden pedestrians and maintain your speed through the crosswalk.
  4. D
    Proceed past the stopped vehicle only if you do not visually see a pedestrian in your specific lane.

Cevap

Stop prior to reaching the crosswalk and ensure no pedestrians are crossing before proceeding.
When a vehicle is stopped at a marked or unmarked crosswalk, trailing or adjacent vehicles must stop before entering the crosswalk. Overtaking a vehicle stopped for pedestrians is illegal because the stopped vehicle obstructs vision, making it impossible to see pedestrians crossing the street.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify traffic hazards near crosswalks
Recognize that a vehicle stopped at a crosswalk indicates a pedestrian is likely crossing.
Sightline obstructions created by adjacent stopped vehicles hide pedestrians entering the roadway.
2
Apply legal right-of-way rules
Bring your vehicle to a complete stop before the crosswalk boundaries.
Traffic safety regulations forbid overtaking any vehicle stopped at a crosswalk to prevent severe pedestrian collisions.
