Question 6488
What must every pedestrian carry when walking at night on the shoulder of a road outside a built-up area?
- A luminous or reflective element that is visible from a minimum distance of 150 meters.
- A yellow reflector that can be seen from a minimum distance of 50 meters.
- A cell phone.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A luminous or reflective element that is visible from a minimum distance of 150 meters.
Outside built-up areas, between sunset and sunrise, pedestrians on the shoulder or roadway must carry or wear at least one light-emitting or reflective item, such as a vest, that is visible from at least 150 meters away. A reflector visible from only 50 meters is not enough, and a cell phone does not make them visible. In the image, the pedestrian's vest shines in the car's lights.
