A pedestrian with a white cane starts to cross ahead of you. What should you do?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Stop and let them cross at their pace
- Step 1: A white cane signals a visually impaired person. Step 2. Stay stopped until they are clear. Answer: Stop and let them cross at their pace. Why not the others: Hoot to alert them to your approach: a horn may confuse and frighten them. Pass quickly behind them: this cuts close to a person who cannot see you. Rev the engine so they hear you: revving may startle them.
