    Changing down to a lower gear while decelerating on approach to the crossing

Cevap

Overtaking the moving vehicle nearest to the crossing or parking your vehicle is strictly prohibited within white zig-zag road markings.
Under UK Highway Code Rule 191, you must not park or wait on white zig-zag lines, nor overtake the moving vehicle nearest to the crossing or any vehicle that has stopped to give way to pedestrians.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the specific road marking and its legal purpose.
The markings are white zig-zag lines located on the approaches to and exits from pedestrian crossings.
Zig-zag markings are installed to maintain a clear line of sight between approaching drivers and pedestrians waiting to cross.
2
Apply the statutory restrictions set out in UK Highway Code Rule 191.
Drivers must not park, wait, or overtake the leading vehicle within the zig-zag area.
Parking obscures waiting pedestrians from view, and overtaking near a crossing drastically elevates the risk of hitting a pedestrian who has stepped onto the road.
