What is a "pedestrian crossing"?
A pedestrian crossing is a marked area on a road or street where people are allowed to cross safely. It is typically located at intersections or other high-traffic areas and is often indicated by signs, painted lines, or lights to make it clear to drivers where pedestrians may cross. Pedestrian crossings help ensure the safety of people walking across the street by giving them a designated place to cross, and in some cases, traffic signals may control when it is safe for pedestrians to move and when vehicles should stop.
Example
The pedestrian crossing was painted with bright white lines for visibility.
The traffic light at the pedestrian crossing turned red for cars.
Drivers must stop at the pedestrian crossing when people are waiting to cross.
