Question 7763
On urban roads, drivers must be very careful, since most cases of elderly pedestrians being hit are due to the fact that...
- they do not obey the signals of traffic officers.
- they do not use crosswalks to cross the street.
- they do not follow traffic rules when walking on sidewalks.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: they do not use crosswalks to cross the street.
Among older pedestrians struck in cities who committed a violation, the most common violation is not using a crosswalk. In the picture, the older couple is crossing far from the crosswalk visible in the background, in front of an approaching car.
