In Portuguese traffic regulations, what must a driver do when turning right into a side street where pedestrians are crossing the roadway?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Yield right of way and stop to allow crossing pedestrians to pass safely
- Step 1: Turning driver duties toward pedestrians. Step 2. Article 103 establishes that when changing direction, drivers must give way to pedestrians who are crossing the roadway into which the vehicle is turning, even in the absence of a marked zebra crossing. Answer: Yield right of way and stop to allow crossing pedestrians to pass safely. Why not the others: Pedestrians crossing have statutory priority when vehicles turn into an intersecting street.
