Explanation
When the traffic light turns green, pedestrians have the right-of-way. You must give the right-of-way to any vehicle, bicyclist, or pedestrian in the intersection. This means that if a pedestrian is standing on the right side of your vehicle, waiting to cross the street, you must yield to them and allow them to cross the street before you turn.
