Near a school, a crossing guard stands in the street holding up a STOP sign while a line of children crosses. The children have already passed your lane, but some are still in the far half of the street. What must you do?
A waits before a school crosswalk. A guard holds a STOP paddle, and two children remain in the far half of the street beyond A’s lane.
Correct answer: Stay stopped until the guard lowers the sign and the children are out of the street.
Why
Montana law protects a column of school children and the crossing guard who directs them. You must also yield to pedestrians in school crosswalks when no guard is present. Stop before the crosswalk so that drivers in other lanes can also see the children.
