How do you behave?

Your answer is correct. In this situation, you need to watch out for children and be ready to brake.

This is because children may suddenly run onto the street, especially when they are near sidewalks or crossing points. German traffic rules emphasize caution around pedestrians, particularly children, who can behave unpredictably. Being prepared to brake ensures you can stop in time if a child steps into the road unexpectedly.

Continuing at the same speed is not safe here, as it does not account for the potential danger posed by the children. Always adjust your speed and be ready to react to ensure the safety of all road users.
