A visually impaired pedestrian carrying a white cane is crossing the road ahead. What should you do?
Correct answer: Yield and stop safely so the person can cross
Why
Yield and stop safely for the visually impaired pedestrian. Maine’s specific protection covers a predominantly white or metallic cane, with or without a red tip, or a guide or personal care dog. The handbook advises stopping at least 10 feet away and waiting until the person is out of danger; that distance is guidance rather than a numerical requirement stated in this statutory subsection.
