Question 7976
Which is one of the violations committed by drivers that poses the greatest risk to pedestrians?
- Not keeping a safe following distance from the vehicle ahead.
- Not yielding the right-of-way at crosswalks.
- Driving in the opposite direction of the established one on a high-capacity divided highway (autovía).
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Not yielding the right-of-way at crosswalks.
One of the driver violations that most often puts pedestrians at risk is failing to respect their right-of-way at crosswalks. Tailgating or driving the wrong way on a high-capacity divided highway (autovía) is very dangerous, but mainly for other drivers.
