FAQ

Be prepared to slow down and stop if necessary. Pedestrians always have the right-of-way. Here are some right-of-way rules at intersections: Without STOP or YIELD signs: The vehicle that arrives to the intersection first has the right-of-way.

(a) The driver of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection, except as otherwise provided in this chapter.

Starting Jan. 1, 2025, it will be illegal to park, stop or stand a vehicle within 20 feet of a crosswalk (marked or unmarked) or within 15 feet of a crosswalk with a curb extension or bulb-out.

Are Drivers Required to Yield to Pedestrians? In California, the law does not state that a driver must wait for the pedestrian to fully exit the crosswalk or the street before they proceed on their way in their lane. A pedestrian must be safely out of the driver's path of travel for them to begin driving again.

Follow the rules of the road and obey signs and signals. Walk on sidewalks whenever they are available. If there is no sidewalk, walk facing traffic and as far from traffic as possible. Cross streets at crosswalks or intersections.

California's new law AB413 is nicknamed the "daylighting" law because vision is better in the daylight. It prohibits both personal and commercial vehicles from parking or stopping within 20 feet of any marked or unmarked crosswalk anywhere in the state. The law applies to curbs whether they're red striped or not.

Pedestrians have the right of way at any crosswalk or intersection, so yield and be prepared to stop. Stop at the crosswalk stop line to give drivers in other lanes an opportunity to see and yield to pedestrians too.

Pedestrians must not: Use bike lanes in place of a sidewalk or crosswalk. When there's no corner-to-corner crossing, go beyond the crosswalk to the opposite corner. Cross against a red light. Crossing at an intersection when nearby vehicles pose an immediate hazard is prohibited.

Jaywalking is no longer illegal in California as long as it is done safely and with no oncoming traffic. Pedestrians must stay out of bike lanes when a walking path is available.

In 2017, the City of Oakland completed an update of the Pedestrian Plan that reflects Oakland's changing conditions, needs and priorities. All drivers must reduce their speeds or stop, if necessary, to yield to pedestrians who are within crosswalks.In a nutshell, daylighting will now make it illegal to park a car within 20 feet of a pedestrian crosswalk. Develop an environment throughout the City – prioritizing routes to school and transit – that enables pedestrians to travel safely and freely. Oakland, CA A new state law enables Oakland to lower speed limits in high traffic areas in the City. Downtown Oakland, Chinatown, the Fruitvale District, Lake Merritt, and East Oakland are among the most dangerous locations for pedestrians. Pedestrians must adhere to traffic laws, use crosswalks, and avoid jaywalking. Meanwhile, motorists must drive cautiously around pedestrians and bicyclists. Targeted street and sidewalk improvements would alleviate many of those issues. No pedestrian may unnecessarily stop or delay traffic while in a marked or unmarked crosswalk.
