Pedestrian crossing

What it means

Marks a pedestrian crossing that has no flashing lights. Be ready to stop and yield to pedestrians waiting to cross or already crossing.

White with black or red; a red circle with a slash means prohibited, a green circle means permitted.

Summarised from the Alberta Driver’s Guide. Read the original: Traffic control ↗

How to recognise it

A white square showing a black walking figure on a line, with no yellow lights.

Where you will see it

At marked crosswalks, often between intersections.

What to do when you see it

  1. 1.Slow down and look for pedestrians at or near the crossing.
  2. 2.Yield to anyone waiting to cross or already crossing, and stop if needed.
  3. 3.Never pass a vehicle that has stopped for a pedestrian.

On the knowledge test

The guide shows this crossing sign with and without yellow lights. Without lights you yield as at any crosswalk; with flashing lights, you also slow to a maximum of 30 km/h.
