    Show the answer

    Answer: Give them the right of way

    Pedestrians facing a steady WALK or walking-person signal may cross in that direction, and other traffic must give them the right of way. N.Y. Veh. & Traf. Law § 1112.

  2. A pedestrian with a guide dog or a white cane is trying to cross at an intersection. What must you do?

    1. Proceed if you have a green light
    2. Honk to let the person know where you are
    3. Yield the right of way to that pedestrian
    4. Yield only if the person is inside a marked crosswalk and there is no traffic signal at that location
    Show the answer

    Answer: Yield the right of way to that pedestrian

    Drivers approaching an intersection or crosswalk must yield to a pedestrian crossing or trying to cross with a guide dog. The same applies to a cane that is metallic, white, or white with a red tip. N.Y. Veh. & Traf. Law § 1153(a).

  3. How close may you stand or park when approaching a stop sign, yield sign, or traffic signal at the side of the road?

    1. No closer than 30 feet
    2. No closer than 15 feet
    3. No closer than 50 feet
    4. No closer than 100 feet
    Show the answer

    Answer: No closer than 30 feet

    You may not stand or park within 30 feet when approaching a stop sign, yield sign, flashing signal, or roadside traffic light. Signs or markings may set a different distance. N.Y. Veh. & Traf. Law § 1202.
