Away from a crosswalk, why should you avoid stopping merely to invite a pedestrian to cross between intersections?
Correct answer: Because other drivers may not expect it or see the person
Why
Do not stop merely to invite someone across between intersections where there is no crossing. Other drivers may not expect the stop or see the person beyond your vehicle. This does not excuse failing to slow or stop to avoid someone already entering your path.
