Question 6356
Pedestrians will have the right-of-way over vehicles when they...
- get off a bus at a marked stop and are between the bus and the nearest pedestrian zone.
- walk on the roadway.
- walk along a road within a built-up area.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: get off a bus at a marked stop and are between the bus and the nearest pedestrian zone.
A pedestrian getting off a bus at a marked stop has the right-of-way while between the bus and the nearest sidewalk or pedestrian refuge island. The same applies to someone going to board the bus. Simply walking on the roadway or along a city street does not give pedestrians the right-of-way, except in the cases specified by the rules, such as at a crosswalk or for a line of schoolchildren.
