Question 925 in the bank

According to the picture, who of those involved should take measures to prevent an accident?

View from inside a car on a city street: a pedestrian stands on a white-striped crosswalk before a roundabout, with a building and a blue car behind.
  1. The vehicle and the pedestrian are far from each other; hence no measures should be taken.
  2. The pedestrian should stop and allow the vehicle to continue driving.
  3. Correct answer: The driver should slow down and even stop if necessary.
  4. The pedestrian should walk faster and finish crossing.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The driver should slow down and even stop if necessary.

A pedestrian on or about to step onto a crosswalk has the right of way, so preventing an accident is the driver's responsibility. Slow down as you approach the crossing and be ready to stop if needed. Even if the distance seems large, pedestrians can act unpredictably, and they are not required to stop or hurry for your vehicle.
