If a traffic signal changes while the pedestrian is still in the street, which of the following has the right of way?

  1. Motorists making turns.

  2. The pedestrian

  3. Motorist coming from his right

  4. Motorist coming from his left.

The correct answer is: The pedestrian

In this scenario, the pedestrian would have the right of way as they are already in the street and it would be unsafe for them to quickly cross the street before the signal changes. Options A, C, and D do not pertain to the pedestrian's right of way in this situation and would not be considered correct. Option A may cause confusion as motorists may believe they have the right to turn even if there is a pedestrian in the crosswalk. Option C and D also do not apply as they refer to motorists and not the pedestrian.
