When a zebra crossing has a central pedestrian island, drivers should treat each side of the road as a separate crossing.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

True. When a zebra crossing is divided by a central pedestrian island, drivers are legally required to treat each half as a separate crossing.
Under Highway Code Rule 195, when there is an island in the middle of a zebra crossing, each side must be treated as a separate crossing. Drivers only need to give way to pedestrians who are on or stepping onto their side of the road.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the specific infrastructure feature presented in the scenario.
The crossing is a zebra crossing equipped with a central pedestrian refuge island.
The presence of a central island alters driver priority obligations under the Highway Code.
2
Apply Highway Code Rule 195 regarding divided zebra crossings.
Each half of the road is an independent crossing; drivers only need to yield if a pedestrian is crossing or waiting on their side of the road.
The central island provides a safe waiting area, allowing each carriageway to operate independently.
