In which of the following situations is the driver obliged to yield the right of way to a pedestrian?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to General Traffic Regulations, while vehicles generally have priority on the roadway, they must yield to pedestrians in specific situations. The correct answer is when the vehicle crosses a shoulder where pedestrians are walking (for example, to enter a property or garage). Drivers must also yield at marked crosswalks and when turning to enter another road if pedestrians are crossing it, even if there is no marked crossing. On motorways and highways, pedestrian traffic is generally prohibited, so yielding to them there is not a standard priority rule.
