Are you allowed to continue driving in this situation, not paying attention to the behaviour of the pedestrian?
Description
Appendix 1 § 1 pt. 2 lit. f of the Regulation of the Minister of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy of 13 July 2012 on the training of persons applying for a driving licence, instructors and lecturers (Journal of Laws item 1019 of 14 September 2012), in conjunction with Art. 4 of the Act of 20 June 1997, "Road Traffic Act" (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended).
Explanation
Correct answer: No
No, under no circumstances should you continue driving without paying attention to the pedestrian. According to the principle of limited trust (Art. 4 of the Road Traffic Act), a driver must anticipate the unusual behaviour of other road users. When passing a stationary bus, you must exercise special caution because pedestrians may suddenly emerge from behind it, as in this situation. Ignoring the pedestrian could lead to hitting them.
