What traffic rules should pedestrians obey?

Answer 1

• If there is a crosswalk, use it. Wait for the walking person icon before walking.
• Stop, look, and listen. Stop before crossing. Look both ways a few times to make sure you see no cars approaching. Listen for car engines. If all is clear, cross.
• If you have a bike, skateboard, or scooter, do not use them while crossing.

Think safety first and cross the road!

Answer 2

Usually just walk. Depending on the type of street such as intersections with/without lights or a side street with/withoust stopsigns you should always look both ways, regardless of if a stopsign is there or not considering a lot of people don't know how to drive. At stoplights, never walk until the walking image appears and still look both ways because people frequently run stoplights!

Answer 3

No, though pedestrians must use their best judgement before crossing the road, lawfully they don't have to yield to cars, pedestrians have the right-of-way over cars, thus, cars must watch for pedestrians. At a crosswalk at a intersection pedestrians lawfully cannot cross on a solid red hand and must wait until the hand goes to a picture of a white walking person, cars still must yield to those pedestrians in that crosswalk regardless.

Answer 4

Pedestrians should use their best judgement when crossing a high-flow intersection even when they have the legal right of way to cross. Should they yield? No, because they legally do not have to. You must yield to them.

Answer 5

They need to watch out for cars and to follow the rules of the road.
