South Australia · Learner's Theory Test · Give way

You are turning left at an intersection and a pedestrian is crossing the road you are turning into. What must you do?

The answer

  • Give way to the pedestrian crossing the road you are entering Correct
  • Sound your horn so the pedestrian hurries across
  • Drive around behind the pedestrian without slowing
  • Continue, because vehicles have priority over pedestrians

Why that's the answer

When turning left or right at an intersection you must give way to any pedestrian crossing the road you are entering. This applies even where there is no marked crossing.
