Drivers – including cyclists – must stop and yield the whole roadway at pedestrian crossovers, school crossings and other locations where there is a crossing guard. Only when pedestrians and school crossing guards have crossed and are safely on the sidewalk can drivers and cyclists proceed.

• Cross only at marked crosswalks or crossovers. Don’t cross in the middle of the block or between parked cars.
• Make sure drivers see you before you cross. If the driver is stopped, make eye contact before you step into the road.
• Wear bright or light-coloured clothing or reflective wear, especially at dusk or when it’s dark.
• At a traffic light:
• Cross when traffic has come to a complete stop.
• Begin to cross at the start of the green light or “Walk” signal, where provided.
• Do not start to cross if you see a flashing “Do Not Walk” symbol or the light turns yellow. If you already started to cross, complete your crossing in safety.
• Never cross on a red light.
• Watch for traffic turning at intersections or turning into and leaving driveways.
