What is the requirement when driving forward out of a driveway?

  1. You must come to a complete stop before crossing the sidewalk area

  2. You must slow down before crossing the sidewalk area

  3. You have the right of way over pedestrians

  4. Honk your horn and cross without stopping

The correct answer is: You must come to a complete stop before crossing the sidewalk area

The requirement when driving forward out of a driveway is to come to a complete stop before crossing the sidewalk area. This rule is in place to ensure the safety of pedestrians who may be walking on the sidewalk. By stopping, you can look for pedestrians and other vehicles that may be in the area, giving you a clearer view and allowing you to yield the right of way to pedestrians. This action helps to prevent accidents and ensures that you are aware of your surroundings before entering the roadway. It is crucial to prioritize pedestrian safety, as sidewalks are often used by pedestrians without any expectation of encountering a vehicle.
