Explanation
Pedestrians using guide dogs or white canes are often partially or totally blind, and rely on their guide dogs or white canes to navigate their surroundings safely. By yielding the right-of-way to these pedestrians, drivers can help ensure their safety and prevent accidents. It is important to be especially cautious when turning corners or backing up, and to avoid honking the horn, as this can startle or confuse the pedestrian.
