In Danish traffic rules, when approaching an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing (fodgængerfelt / zebra crossing), what is the driver's duty?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Reduce speed and stop to let pedestrians who are on or stepping onto the crossing pass
- Step 1: Under Færdselsloven § 27, drivers approaching a pedestrian crossing must adjust their speed and stop if necessary to allow pedestrians already on or clearly entering the crossing to pass safely. Answer: Reduce speed and stop to let pedestrians who are on or stepping onto the crossing pass. Why not the others: Sounding horns to intimidate pedestrians is illegal, zebra priority applies to pedestrians crossing from either side, and zebra crossings without lights still require yielding.
