Passing target: 70% (14/20)
You are driving in the right lane of a street with two lanes in your direction. Ahead, a car in the left lane stops at a crosswalk where there is no traffic signal. You cannot see why it stopped. What should you do?
A approaches in the right lane of a street with two lanes in its direction. B has stopped in the left lane before a crosswalk. There is no traffic signal, and no pedestrian is visible to explain the stop.
Correct answer: Stop before the crosswalk, and go only when you are sure that no one is crossing.
Why
Where there is no traffic signal, you must slow down or stop to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk. Stop well back from the crosswalk so that drivers in other lanes can also see the pedestrian and stop. Expect people who may not see or hear you, such as children or people with disabilities.
