Florida Learner's Permit Practice Test

What should you do if you approach an intersection with a yield sign and there is a pedestrian in the crosswalk?

Stop and wait for the pedestrian to cross completely. Slow down and proceed with caution, yielding to the pedestrian. Honk your horn to alert the pedestrian and proceed. Drive around the pedestrian and continue without stopping.

Correct Answer:

Stop and wait for the pedestrian to cross completely.

Explanation:

Approaching an intersection with a yield sign means that you do not have the right of way and must yield to any vehicles or pedestrians already in the intersection. Option A is the correct answer, as it follows the law of yielding to pedestrians in a crosswalk. Option B is incorrect because slowing down and still proceeding without stopping may not give the pedestrian enough time to cross safely. Option C is incorrect because honking may startle the pedestrian and could lead to a dangerous situation. Option D is incorrect and illegal because it does not give the pedestrian priority and puts them at risk. Therefore, option A is the safest and most responsible choice in this scenario.
