Passing target: 80% (52/65)
You drive in the right lane of a street with two lanes in your direction and no traffic signals. The car in the left lane stops just before a marked crosswalk, and you cannot see why. What must you do?
A approaches in the right lane of a street with two lanes each way. B is stopped ahead in the left lane before a marked crosswalk. The reason for B’s stop is hidden.
Correct answer: Stop, and do not pass it, because a pedestrian may be crossing in front of it.
Why
A car stopped at a crosswalk is often the only warning that someone is crossing. On a street with two lanes in your direction, the stopped car hides the pedestrian from you and hides you from the pedestrian. Stop before the crosswalk, not on it, and go only when the person has finished crossing and the stopped car moves on.
