You are approaching a crosswalk without traffic lights. No one is on the crosswalk, but a person is standing at the edge of the sidewalk on the right, about to cross. Which TWO are correct? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) is going straight in lane 2
- Crosswalk without traffic lights; no one crossing yet
- A pedestrian about to cross at the edge of the sidewalk on the right
- Two lanes in each direction
💡 Hint
The duty to make a temporary stop applies not only when a pedestrian IS crossing the crosswalk but also when one is ABOUT TO cross (Article 27(1) of the Road Traffic Act). Do not judge only by the empty crosswalk; also look at people waiting at the edge of the sidewalk.
Answer: ④, ⑤
Explanation
The duty to make a temporary stop applies not only when a pedestrian is crossing but also when they are about to cross (Road Traffic Act Article 27(1)). Someone is waiting at the edge of the sidewalk to cross, so slow down in advance and make a temporary stop at the stop line. Passing because the crosswalk is empty, or speeding up, is wrong, and honking to make the pedestrian wait obstructs their crossing.
