Is it permitted to enter a pedestrian crossing if, due to traffic conditions, you foresee that you may be stopped on it?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is NO. According to traffic regulations, even if you have the right of way (e.g., a green light), you are prohibited from entering an intersection or pedestrian crossing if traffic conditions suggest that you will likely get stopped on it, thereby blocking cross traffic or pedestrians. The goal is to prevent your vehicle from becoming a dangerous obstacle for pedestrians trying to cross if the lights change.
