Where is the braking position at a zebra crossing?
1 Answers
Generally, you should brake when you see the white diamond pattern, approximately 8-10 meters before the zebra crossing. Lightly press the brake pedal and then release it, ensuring to apply gentle and gradual pressure. Introduction to Pedestrian Crossings: A pedestrian crossing refers to a designated walking area marked with zebra stripes or other methods on the roadway, indicating where pedestrians should cross. It is designed to prevent vehicles from injuring pedestrians by requiring drivers to slow down and yield to pedestrians crossing the street. Marking Methods for Pedestrian Crossings: There are two types of pedestrian crossing markings: striped (or zebra-striped) pedestrian crossings and parallel pedestrian crossings.
