Can you drive through the pedestrian crossing in this situation?

Description

§ 95 para. 2 point 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws of 2002, No. 170, item 1393, as amended) Art. 3 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137)
Explanation

Correct answer: No

In this situation, a person has dynamically run onto the pedestrian crossing, creating an immediate safety hazard. Despite the green light signal, which normally permits entry, you have an absolute obligation to avoid hitting the pedestrian and to refrain from driving in accordance with the general principle of caution specified in Art. 3 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act.
