Question 7342

A line of schoolchildren is crossing the roadway. Must you yield to them?

  1. No, when they are not carrying a STOP paddle.
  2. Only at crosswalks.
  3. Yes.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes.

Yes. A line of schoolchildren crossing the roadway has the right-of-way, whether or not they use a crosswalk, just like military units on foot and organized processions. The person accompanying them does not need to carry a STOP paddle. In the picture, the line is crossing the street with a female supervisor wearing a yellow vest, and the blue passenger car must wait.
