- BFlash your headlights repeatedly to encourage the pedestrian to hurry across
- Allow the pedestrian to cross at their own pace without revving your engineCevap
- DDrive forward carefully around the pedestrian if there is enough space in the carriageway
Cevap
Give way and remain stopped until the pedestrian has safely cleared the crossing, and allow the pedestrian to cross at their own pace without revving your engine.
Under The Highway Code (Rule 196), a flashing amber light at a pelican crossing means you must give way to pedestrians who are already on the crossing. You should remain stationary until they have reached the pavement safely, giving them time without intimidation such as revving the engine or edging forward.
