Zorluk: OrtaPedestrians

In slow-moving town traffic, you notice a pedestrian waiting to cross the road between parked cars ahead. What should you do as you approach?

  1. A
    Flash your headlights to indicate that the pedestrian may cross in front of you
  2. B
    Focus entirely on the vehicle directly ahead to ensure you maintain your position in the traffic queue
  3. Slow down, maintain a safe gap ahead, and be prepared to stop if they step into the carriagewayCevap
  4. D
    Accelerate slightly to pass the parked vehicles before the pedestrian steps out

Cevap

Slow down, maintain a safe gap ahead, and be prepared to stop if they step into the carriageway
When driving past parked vehicles where pedestrians are present, drivers must anticipate that someone could step into the road unexpectedly. Reducing speed and leaving a safe distance ensures you have adequate time and space to stop smoothly without endangering anyone.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the vulnerable road user and potential hazards along the road
Recognise the pedestrian standing between parked vehicles as a developing hazard with restricted visibility
Pedestrians stepping out from behind parked cars may have limited sightlines of approaching traffic
2
Adjust vehicle speed and following distance
Reduce speed and increase separation from the vehicle ahead
Lower speed shortens stopping distance and allows more time to react if the pedestrian steps onto the road
3
Maintain continuous observation and readiness to stop
Safely manage the situation without giving misleading signals
Drivers must never beckon or rush pedestrians across, but remain alert and ready to brake smoothly
