Explanation
When approaching a corner, you must always check for pedestrians, especially those using guide dogs or white canes, before making a right turn. Blind pedestrians rely on their guide dogs and white canes to cross the street safely, so it is important to always give them the right-of-way and wait for them to cross before making a turn. Do not give verbal directions to a blind pedestrian and be prepared to stop your vehicle to prevent injury.
