Pedestrian crossing

This sign is installed near a pedestrian crossing. The fluorescent yellow retroreflective foil outline ensures increased visibility both during the day and at night. Usually, it is also preceded by the road sign "Advance warning pedestrian crossing".

When encountering this sign the manoeuvres of stopping, waiting, U-turn and moving in reverse are prohibited at less than 25 meters before and after the pedestrian crossing. And the overtaking manoeuvre is prohibited only on the pedestrian crossing.

According to Art. 123. of the Regulation: The driver of the vehicle is obliged to drive with a maximum of 30 km/h in the urban area or 50 km/h outside built-up area, when there are pedestrians near the crossing. If the road has two or more lanes, the driver of the vehicle no longer has this obligation.

According to Art. 135. of the Regulation: The driver of the vehicle is obliged to give priority to the pedestrian who is crossing on the pedestrian crossing, when he is on the direction of travel of the vehicle.

Art. 123. The driver of the vehicle is obliged to drive at a speed that does not exceed 30 km/h, in the urban area, or 50 km/h outside built-up area, at pedestrian crossings without traffic lights, signalled by signs and markings, when the public road has at most one lane per direction, and the pedestrians on the sidewalk, in the immediate vicinity of the carriageway, intend to start crossing.

Art. 135. The driver of the vehicle is obliged to give priority to the pedestrian who is crossing the public road, through a specially designated place, marked and signalled accordingly or at the green colour of the traffic light intended for him, when he is on the direction of travel of the vehicle.
