- Correct answer: Slow down and even stop if required, in order to allow the pedestrians to cross safely.
- Stop and give right-of-way to the pedestrians that are crossing the intersection.
- Stop and give right-of-way to the vehicles that are coming from the left and approaching the exit.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Slow down and even stop if required, in order to allow the pedestrians to cross safely.
When leaving a yard, property entrance or petrol station, you usually cross a pavement where pedestrians are walking, so you must slow down and stop if needed to let them cross safely. There is no "first to come, first to go" rule, and pedestrians are not expected to wait for you. The exiting driver must also give way to all traffic on the road, not only vehicles from the left.
