Question 438 of 554

What are your obligations, as a driver, at a pedestrian crossing that is properly marked and signalled?

A to give priority also to pedestrians who are travelling on the other direction of travel;
B to reduce speed and slip through the pedestrians;
C to give priority to pedestrians who are crossing in compliance with the traffic rules, located on your direction of travel.

Explanation

For answer  A 

The obligation to give priority applies only to pedestrians who are crossing on your direction of travel, not to pedestrians who are travelling on the other direction of travel.


For answer  B 

Considering that you have the obligation to give them priority, you are strictly prohibited from slipping through them, it would be a case of failure to give priority.


For answer  C 

You have the obligation to give priority to the pedestrian who is crossing the public road, through a specially designated place, properly marked and signalled, or at the green colour of the traffic light intended for him, when he is on your direction of travel.


The correct answer is: C
