Question 3979
Does this crosswalk marking give pedestrians the right-of-way?
- No, never.
- Yes, always.
- Only when the crosswalk is regulated by a traffic light.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, always.
The wide white stripes across the roadway mark a crosswalk, where pedestrians have the right-of-way. If someone is about to cross, you must let them cross and stop if necessary. They do not need a traffic light to have that right-of-way; if there is a traffic light or an officer directing traffic at the crossing, you must follow their instructions.
