In this situation, are you obliged to stop the vehicle to let the pedestrian cross the street?

Description

Art. 26 para. 7 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137 as amended)
Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

The video shows a pedestrian moving with a cane, which indicates visibly limited mobility. According to Art. 26 para. 7 of the Road Traffic Act, in such a situation, the driver is obliged to stop the vehicle to allow the person to cross the roadway. This regulation requires drivers to take special care of people with disabilities, requiring them to yield right of way regardless of whether they are at a designated crossing.
