Info

• You must yield to pedestrians when turning into a driveway or parking lot. Laws for Pedestrians • Use a crosswalk if one is available. • At crosswalks with pedestrian signals, push the button on the pole and wait for a WALK signal. Intersections without buttons automatically give WALK signals. • When the WALK signal is shown, you can begin to cross. When DON’T WALK is shown, you should not begin to cross; if you are already in the crosswalk, you should continue to cross to the other side. • Before you cross a roadway, stop at the curb and look left and right for traffic. Be alert. Look out especially for cars turning onto the road you are crossing. Traffic Signs Traffic signs control traffic, warn you of hazards, help you get where you are going, and tell you about roadway services. The shapes and colors of traffic signs are important. Sign colors mean the following: RED—stop or prohibition GREEN—direction, shows where you can go YELLOW—general warning BLACK/WHITE—regulation BLUE—motorist service (e.g., gas, food, hotels) BROWN—recreational, historic, or scenic site ORANGE—construction or maintenance warning FLOURESCENT YELLOW-GREEN—school zone, bicycle, pedestrian warning Know signs by their appearances so you can recognize them at a distance.
