A vehicle ahead has stopped for a pedestrian at a crosswalk. May you pass it?
A approaches a crosswalk beside B, which is stopped for a pedestrian partly hidden from A.
Correct answer: No; stay behind until the pedestrian has crossed
Why
Do not pass a vehicle stopped at a crosswalk; it may be letting a hidden pedestrian cross. BC law also prohibits overtaking a vehicle slowing or stopped at a crosswalk or intersection to allow a pedestrian across. Stay back and check the crossing.
