How should pedestrians cross the road if there is no pedestrian crossing?

Correct answer

Perpendicular to the centre line of the road

Outside a pedestrian crossing, ensure you can cross without risk or undue obstruction and walk perpendicular to the carriageway’s centre line, without unnecessary stopping or delay. Use crossings where provided. Absence of a pavement is not the criterion for the crossing rule; do not cross a roundabout’s carriageway except at a designated crossing.
