Question: 1 / 400

While approaching an intersection you notice a pedestrian with a white cane. You should?

Continue at your current speed

Stop immediately

Slow down, this may be a person with a visual disability

Approaching an intersection requires caution and awareness of your surroundings. However, in this scenario, it is important to recognize the pedestrian with a white cane may have a visual disability and may not be able to see or move as quickly as other pedestrians. Therefore, it would be incorrect to continue at your current speed or speed up to clear the intersection quickly, as this could pose a danger to the pedestrian. Stopping immediately may also startle the pedestrian and cause confusion. Slowing down is the appropriate action as it allows for a safer interaction between the driver and visually impaired pedestrian.
