PassYield to Pedestrians
Where: At intersections, pedestrian crossings (zebra crossings), school zones, and other areas where pedestrians are likely to cross the road.
Purpose: To compel drivers to give priority to pedestrians who are crossing or intending to cross the road. The sign serves as a warning that pedestrians may be present and have the right of way at the designated crossing.
Action Required by Driver: As you approach the pedestrian crossing, reduce your speed and be alert for pedestrians near or on the road. Yield to pedestrians who are already crossing or who are clearly intending to cross, and stop completely if necessary to allow them to cross safely.
- Do not overtake — never pass another vehicle that has stopped at a pedestrian crossing, there may be people crossing in front of it.
- Proceed once clear — once all pedestrians have crossed and the way is clear, proceed carefully.
