Are There Penalty Points and Fines for Not Yielding to Pedestrians?
1 Answers
Not yielding to pedestrians results in penalty points and fines. Generally, you should slow down about 100 meters before the zebra crossing and maintain a controlled speed for civilized driving: Yielding to Pedestrians: If you notice pedestrians preparing to cross at the zebra crossing ahead, you should reduce your speed early. When you see pedestrians already crossing, you must yield and wait for them to pass before proceeding. Maintain a Safe Distance: Pay attention to the distance between vehicles, both in front and behind, ensuring it remains within a safe range. If you observe a vehicle ahead slowing down to approach a zebra crossing, you should also ease off the accelerator and be ready to gently apply the brakes to maintain a safe and appropriate distance.
