In this situation, should you yield the right of way to the pedestrian?
Description
Act of June 20, 1997 - Road Traffic Act. (Journal of Laws 1997 No. 98 item 602, as amended)
Explanation
Correct answer: Yes
In the recording, you are approaching a marked pedestrian crossing (sign D-6), onto which a person pushing a bicycle is entering from the left. According to the regulations, a person pushing a bicycle is treated as a pedestrian (Art. 2 pt. 18). In this situation, you are obliged to yield the right of way, because according to Art. 26 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act, the driver of a vehicle approaching a pedestrian crossing is obliged to yield to a pedestrian entering or already on that crossing.
