Pedestrian safety is a critical issue across California, especially in busy cities where traffic congestion and foot traffic intersect daily. Under California law, drivers must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians crossing within marked crosswalks and at unmarked intersections. Unfortunately, many collisions occur because drivers fail to slow down, misjudge stopping distances, or overlook pedestrians altogether. Understanding your rights and responsibilities under California crosswalk laws can help prevent devastating injuries.
