California Driver License (DMV) Written Practice Test

At an unmarked crosswalk, who has the right-of-way?

The vehicle driving straight The pedestrian The vehicle making a left turn The vehicle making a right turn

Correct Answer:

The pedestrian

Explanation:

In an unmarked crosswalk, the pedestrian has the right-of-way. This is because unmarked crosswalks, also known as "unsignalized crosswalks", do not have traffic signals or stop signs regulating the flow of traffic. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the driver to yield to the pedestrian. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest that the vehicles have the right-of-way over the pedestrian, which is not the case in an unmarked crosswalk. While it is important for drivers to be aware of and yield to pedestrians in all situations, it is especially critical to do so at an unmarked crosswalk where the pedestrian does not have the protection of traffic signals or signage.
