The traffic light is green. You want to turn right. How do you respond to pedestrians wishing to cross the road into which you want to turn?

When the traffic light is green and you want to turn right, German traffic regulations prioritize pedestrian safety. The law requires drivers to yield to pedestrians who are crossing or about to cross at intersections, regardless of the green light. This means that if pedestrians are waiting to cross, you must allow them to do so before making your turn.

The combination of allowing pedestrians to cross is essential to prevent accidents and ensure the safety of all road users. Failing to yield can not only lead to dangerous situations but also result in legal penalties. Understanding and adhering to this rule is crucial for responsible driving.
