Question 4969

Drivers of vehicles must yield to pedestrians...

  1. who have gotten off a bus at a marked stop and are between the bus and the nearest pedestrian refuge.
  2. whenever they are walking on the shoulder.
  3. when they are walking on the roadway.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: who have gotten off a bus at a marked stop and are between the bus and the nearest pedestrian refuge.

At a marked bus stop, someone about to board a bus or who has just gotten off has the right-of-way while between the bus and the nearest sidewalk or pedestrian refuge island. Simply walking on the roadway or shoulder does not give a pedestrian the right-of-way. On the shoulder, they have it, for example, when a vehicle crosses the shoulder to leave a property.
