Explanation
Pedestrians are more vulnerable than drivers; therefore, they must be extra cautious when walking near cars. They should always choose to walk on the sidewalk, but if a road doesn’t have one, pedestrians must walk on the left side of the pavement, facing oncoming traffic. They must obey signals and traffic officers at intersections or crosswalks and yield the right-of-way to vehicles when necessary.
