Sharing the RoadStandalone practice
A vehicle in the neighboring lane has stopped at a marked crosswalk for a pedestrian, hiding part of the crossing from you. What is the safest response?
B is stopped at a marked crosswalk ahead of A in the neighboring lane. B blocks part of A's view of the pedestrian crossing.
Correct answer: Do not pass; stop as needed and let the pedestrian cross safely.
Why
Protect the crossing instead of passing the stopped vehicle into an area you cannot see. It can hide a pedestrian from you. Yield, stop as needed and move only after your path is safely clear.
