At a school crossing where children are present, what does Montana require drivers to do?
- Slow down and watch for children at all times
- Maintain the ordinary highway speed unless a guard enters the road
- Stop only after a child steps into the lane
- Use the horn continuously while passing the crossing
Answer: Slow down and watch for children at all times. The school crossing warning tells drivers that children may be using the roadway, so the manual directs them to slow down and watch for children at all times. A crossing guard is not required before the driver becomes cautious, and waiting for a child to enter the lane is too late. Honking does not replace observation or speed control. The safest mental marker is the combination of a school location and limited child visibility: reduce speed early, search both sides, and be ready to stop for a pedestrian.
