- BFlash your headlights to beckon the pedestrians across the road
- Check your mirrors and nearside blind spot before committing to the turnCevap
- DAccelerate into the side road quickly to clear the main carriageway before they step out
Cevap
Give way and allow the pedestrians to cross before turning, and check your mirrors and nearside blind spot before completing the manoeuvre.
According to the Highway Code Hierarchy of Road Users (Rule H2), drivers should give way to pedestrians who are crossing or waiting to cross a road into which the driver is turning. Additionally, checking mirrors and the nearside blind spot ensures no cyclists or other road users are filtering on your left before you complete the turn.
