Pedestrian crossings and give‑way
Handle crossings correctly - give‑way, signals, positioning and interaction.
Pedestrians are vulnerable; give them clear priority where required.
Core rules
- Yield to pedestrians in marked crossings
- Slow early; be ready to stop
- At signals: follow lights, but ensure the crossing is clear before moving
Interaction
- Make eye contact when possible
- Don’t overtake vehicles stopping for pedestrians
- Watch for cyclists and scooters using crossings
