What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires a vehicle operator to stop his or her vehicle and remain stopped until a pedestrian crossing at a crosswalk has completed crossing the roadway.
Under current law, the operator of a vehicle is required to yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian, personal delivery device, bicyclist, or rider of a personal assistive mobility device that is crossing a highway at an intersection or crosswalk controlled by a traffic signal on a green or “walk" signal or that is crossing a highway at an intersection or crosswalk not controlled by a traffic signal within a marked or unmarked crosswalk. “Yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian" is defined to mean that the operator of a vehicle must reduce speed, or stop if necessary, to avoid endangering, colliding with, or interfering with pedestrian travel.
