- When pedestrians are using a pedestrian crossing, they are not obliged to take account of drivers approaching the intersection.
- Pedestrians are at no risk near an intersection.
- An intersection is the most dangerous place on the roadway, as drivers take no sufficient note of pedestrians but only of traffic lights.
- The safest place for pedestrians to cross is the pedestrian crossing next to the intersection, because drivers are obliged to slow down in the area of the intersection.
