What should a driver do when approaching a pedestrian crossing without signals?

When approaching a pedestrian crossing without signals, a driver should stop and yield to all pedestrians. This is crucial for ensuring the safety of those who are crossing the road. Traffic laws prioritize pedestrian safety, and yielding allows pedestrians to cross safely without the risk of being hit by moving vehicles.

Pedestrian crossings indicate a designated area for crossing which means drivers should be particularly vigilant and prepared to stop. Failing to yield could lead to serious accidents, as pedestrians have the right of way in these situations. This approach not only complies with the law but also promotes responsible and cautious driving behavior.
