Explanation
Never pass a vehicle that has stopped at a crosswalk to allow a pedestrian to cross. Always assume that a vehicle stopping suddenly near a crosswalk is doing so for a reason. The stopped vehicle may block your view of a pedestrian crossing the street. Slow down, stop if necessary, and only proceed when you have a clear view of the road ahead and are certain no pedestrians are crossing. If your view is obstructed, wait until the stopped vehicle moves or the pedestrian has safely crossed.
