Question 1931
Do pedestrians have the right-of-way with only the pavement marking?
- No, because crosswalks must be accompanied by a traffic light.
- No, because pavement markings must be accompanied by the corresponding upright sign to give the right-of-way.
- Yes, the pavement marking gives them the right-of-way.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, the pavement marking gives them the right-of-way.
The crosswalk pavement marking itself requires drivers to yield to pedestrians. It does not need an accompanying posted sign or traffic light to give them the right-of-way.
