Zorluk: ZorPedestrian Crossings

You are driving in heavy, slow-moving traffic on a wet multi-lane urban road. Ahead, traffic has queued up immediately past a light-controlled pedestrian crossing, but the signal facing you is green. What action must you take as you approach the crossing?

  1. A
    Filter into an adjacent lane within the white zig-zag markings to bypass the queue before the crossing
  2. B
    Flash your headlights to signal pedestrians to cross quickly while you edge onto the crossing
  3. Wait behind the stop line and keep the crossing completely clear until there is enough space on the far sideCevap
  4. D
    Drive across the stop line on green and wait over the pedestrian markings until the vehicle in front moves off

Cevap

Wait behind the stop line and keep the crossing completely clear until there is enough space on the far side.
Under the Highway Code, when traffic is queueing or moving slowly, drivers must not enter a pedestrian crossing if their exit is blocked. Even though the signal shows green, drivers must wait before the stop line until there is sufficient clear space on the opposite side of the crossing to accommodate the entire vehicle without obstructing pedestrians.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Assess the road and traffic conditions ahead of the light-controlled crossing.
Identify that the queue on the far side of the crossing does not leave sufficient room to accommodate your vehicle.
A green traffic signal indicates permission to proceed only if the way ahead is clear.
2
Apply the rule regarding blocked crossings and stationary queues.
Bring the vehicle to a halt before the white stop line.
Under the Highway Code, drivers must never block a pedestrian crossing or stop on the crossing area when traffic is congested.
3
Monitor the traffic flow ahead while remaining stationary.
Proceed across the crossing only once the stationary queue has moved forward enough to clear the crossing fully.
This preserves safe, unobstructed passage for pedestrians and avoids stranding the vehicle across pedestrian walkways.
