What is the correct course of action in this situation?

I stop and allow the person to cross the road

I drive to the left past the person, leaving sufficient clearance space

I flash my headlights to signal to the person that I am giving way

Here is Our AI Assistant's Explanation

Your answer to stop and allow the person to cross the road is correct.

According to German traffic rules, pedestrians at a pedestrian crossing have the right of way. Drivers must stop and wait to let them cross safely. Passing by without stopping or signaling with headlights is not allowed because it can confuse pedestrians or cause dangerous situations. Always stop fully before the crossing to protect pedestrians and avoid penalties. This rule promotes safety and ensures pedestrian priority at crossings.
