According to the Transport Department, zebra crossings are pedestrian crossings painted with black and white stripes on the road, with "Zigzag" lines drawn on both sides.
The "Zigzag" line warns the driver that there may be pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross the road, and the driver must give way to pedestrians on the "zebra crossing."
However, before pedestrians cross the "zebra crossing", drivers should have sufficient time to see themselves in order to slow down and stop.
If necessary, pedestrians should first take a small step on the "zebra crossing" to indicate to drivers approaching vehicles that they want to cross the road.
Before pedestrians step on the zebra crossing, vehicles still do not need to stop for them.
Pedestrians must ensure that the vehicle has stopped before starting to cross the road along the zebra crossing.
