Sample question from test 4
signs
What response is prompted by this pedestrian crossing warning?
- Watch for people crossing, reduce speed, and be prepared to stop
- Honk continuously so pedestrians know the vehicle is coming
- Maintain speed because pedestrians must wait for vehicles
- Move onto the shoulder to go around anyone crossing
Answer: Watch for people crossing, reduce speed, and be prepared to stop. A pedestrian crossing warning asks the driver to be alert for people crossing the path, slow down, and be ready to stop. Honking continuously can startle people and does not replace careful observation. The sign does not give vehicles priority over pedestrians, and using the shoulder to evade a crossing person is dangerous and improper. Scan both sides of the roadway, cover the brake, and yield when a pedestrian is in or entering the crossing area. The warning is about anticipating movement, not waiting until a person is directly in front of the car.
