Question 2249

At a crosswalk, should you signal to pedestrians to cross?

  1. Yes, so they know you are going to yield to them.
  2. No, because you do not know what the other drivers are going to do.
  3. Yes, so they cross faster.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, because you do not know what the other drivers are going to do.

Gesturing may encourage a pedestrian to cross confidently even though other drivers may not have seen them. For safety, you should not wave them across.
