Question 3615

What must you do when crossing a shoulder being used by pedestrians?

  1. Warn them with the horn so they move out of the way.
  2. Yield to them only when they form a group.
  3. Yield to them if no pedestrian area is available to them.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yield to them if no pedestrian area is available to them.

Pedestrians walking on the shoulder because no pedestrian area is available have the right-of-way over a vehicle crossing it. The driver must let them pass.
