Zorluk: OrtaPedestrian Crossings

When following slow-moving queues of traffic towards a pedestrian crossing, what action should you take?

  1. A
    Flash your headlights to encourage waiting pedestrians to cross quickly ahead of you
  2. Wait before the crossing lines until there is enough space on the other side to clear it completelyCevap
  3. C
    Stop on the white zig-zag markings to stay as close as possible to the queue in front
  4. D
    Move onto the crossing so you can check vehicle blind spots more clearly before proceeding

Cevap

Wait before the crossing lines until there is enough space on the other side to clear it completely
In slow-moving or queuing traffic, drivers must not enter a pedestrian crossing unless there is sufficient room on the opposite side to clear it completely. This ensures pedestrians can safely cross without having to weave between stationary vehicles.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Assess the flow of traffic ahead of the pedestrian crossing
Identify that traffic is queuing and space past the crossing is currently unavailable
Drivers must continuously anticipate whether their vehicle will become stranded across the crossing
2
Hold your position behind the stop line or crossing boundary
The pedestrian crossing remains unobstructed for pedestrians wishing to cross
The Highway Code explicitly states that drivers must keep pedestrian crossings clear in slow-moving traffic
3
Proceed across only when the vehicle ahead has moved far enough forward
The vehicle clears the entire crossing in one continuous, safe movement
Prevents trapping pedestrians in live traffic lanes or forcing vulnerable road users into oncoming traffic
