You are driving on a street near a school and see this sign. Two children are standing at the curb ahead, near the crosswalk. What should you do?
Correct answer: Slow down, watch the children, and be ready to stop if they cross
Why
Children can step into the street suddenly and are hard to see between parked cars. New York law requires every driver to use due care to avoid hitting a pedestrian and to drive at a reduced speed when pedestrians create a special hazard. School crossing guards are allowed to direct traffic, and you must obey their directions.
