Under Oregon's Crosswalk Law, when must a driver stop and stay stopped for a pedestrian crossing the roadway?
The answer
Answer: B. Oregon's Crosswalk Law requires drivers to stop and remain stopped for a pedestrian crossing in a marked or unmarked crosswalk until the pedestrian has cleared the driver's lane and the entire adjacent lane. When turning at a traffic signal, stop until they are past your lane plus 6 feet into the next lane. Never pass another vehicle that has stopped at a crosswalk to allow a pedestrian to cross.
