What actions should you anticipate at such stops?

This image depicts a traffic situation involving a tram stop. In such scenarios, drivers must be particularly cautious.

Key points to consider:

1. **Tram Stops and Pedestrians**: In Germany, tram stops often have pedestrians alighting directly onto the road. As a driver, you need to anticipate that these pedestrians may not be aware of oncoming traffic.

2. **Anticipated Actions**:
- Pedestrians might step off the tram-stop island without looking, as they may feel secure behind the tram.
- Some may rush across the road to reach the tram-stop island, especially if they are in a hurry.
- However, it is also possible that some pedestrians will wait for a safe opportunity to cross.

Understanding the combination of these potential actions is essential for safe driving. It is crucial for drivers to be aware and ready to stop to avoid accidents, as pedestrian safety takes precedence in these situations according to German traffic regulations. Always be vigilant and prepared for unexpected movements from pedestrians at tram stops.
