Question 2122

Is the pedestrian walking correctly along this road outside a built-up area?

  1. Yes, because the pedestrian is walking on the left side of the roadway in their direction of travel.
  2. No, because the pedestrian must walk on the right side of the roadway in their direction of travel.
  3. No, because the pedestrian must always walk on the side of the roadway where the shoulder is usable.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because the pedestrian is walking on the left side of the roadway in their direction of travel.

Outside built-up areas, if there is no sidewalk or pedestrian area, pedestrians walk on the left, facing traffic. That way they can see oncoming cars. Since October 1, 2026, when several pedestrians walk on the shoulder or the roadway, they must walk in single file.
