Western Australia · Theory Test (CTT) · Pedestrians and cyclists

The vehicle in front of you has stopped at a children's crossing. May you overtake it?

The answer

  • Yes, if you can see the crossing is clear
  • Yes, at up to 10 km/h
  • No - you must not overtake a vehicle that has stopped at a pedestrian, children's or railway crossing Correct
  • Only if the crossing guard waves you through

Why that's the answer

You must not overtake a vehicle that has slowed or stopped at a railway, pedestrian or children's crossing. It has stopped for a reason you cannot see from behind it, which is usually someone on the crossing.
