California Driver License (DMV) Written Practice Test

Pedestrians should be given the right-of-way:

In any business or residential area When crossing in a marked crosswalk When crossing in an unmarked crosswalk At all times

Correct Answer:

When crossing in a marked crosswalk

Explanation:

Pedestrians should be given the right-of-way when crossing in a marked crosswalk because it is a designated and safe area for pedestrians to cross the street. While pedestrians do have right-of-way in an unmarked crosswalk, it may be difficult for drivers to see and anticipate their movements. Giving pedestrians right-of-way at all times is not practical, as there may be situations where it is not safe for them to cross, such as in heavy traffic or at a busy intersection. Similarly, giving pedestrians right-of-way in any business or residential area could be dangerous as it may lead to them crossing in unexpected areas or against traffic signals. Marked crosswalks are the safest option for both pedestrians and drivers and should always be given priority.
