When approaching a pedestrian crossing marked only with road markings (zebra crossing), in which situation are you obliged to stop?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

At a pedestrian crossing marked with road markings (zebra crossing), the pedestrian has priority. According to General Traffic Regulations, the driver must yield not only if the pedestrian is already crossing the road but also if they show their intention to do so (for example, waiting at the curb looking at traffic or stepping down). Stopping only when the pedestrian is already in the middle of the road, or waiting for an agent's signal (when none is present), is incorrect and dangerous.
