When a crosswalk signal shows pedestrians crossing, you must stop and yield. Pedestrians have the right-of-way in crosswalks, and the signal is guiding you to wait until they have finished crossing. Stop before the crosswalk line and stay there until the crosswalk is clear and you’re allowed to proceed. Then, proceed with caution. Do not speed up, honk, or continue at normal speed, as that would put pedestrians at risk. This rule is about keeping pedestrians safe and ensuring you don’t interrupt their crossing.
