Explanation
Pedestrians crossing at corners have the right-of-way whether or not a crosswalk is marked. This is because crosswalks exist on all corners of every intersections, even if no painted lines are present. To visualize an unmarked crosswalk, imagine the sidewalk or shoulder extending across the road to meet the sidewalk or shoulder on the other side. Drivers must yield to pedestrians in these crosswalks, whether marked or unmarked, especially at intersections without traffic signals.
