Distinguish a safely cleared path from turning in front of an approaching pedestrian.
Distinguish a safely cleared path from turning in front of an approaching pedestrian.
Each section below follows an explanation or demonstration in the video. Select a section to play from that point, then practise the skill with appropriate supervision.
After a checked lane change, the driver approaches green and observes a pedestrian walking away. A turn behind a person requires generous clearance and a fully safe path; do not squeeze close simply because they are moving away.
If the pedestrian is walking toward the car’s path, wait instead of turning ahead of them because you think there is enough time. Continue watching for people entering from either side and refresh the right blind-spot check before moving.
