A blind pedestrian carrying a cane predominantly white in color is crossing the roadway. What must an approaching driver do?
Correct answer: Yield the right-of-way to the pedestrian.
Why
Maryland requires drivers to yield to a blind or partially blind pedestrian using a guide dog or carrying a cane predominantly white or metallic in color, with or without a red tip. The statute separately covers a deaf or hearing-impaired pedestrian with a guide dog and specified mobility-device users. As a safety precaution, approach carefully and avoid endangering the person; the specific legal duty tested here is yielding the right-of-way.
