BDifficulty 2/5

At a marked pedestrian crossing with no controlling traffic light or officer, must you stop to let a pedestrian pass if crossing or showing an intention to cross?

Correct answer

Yes, give way and stop so they can cross safely.

Yes; give way and stop to allow safe crossing. The road marking is sufficient to mark the crossing: an additional upright sign is not needed for pedestrian priority. Anticipate people, slow down and check other lanes too. Do not wait until the pedestrian has entered the carriageway before acting.
