A driver is required to yield the right of way to a pedestrian lawfully crossing in a crosswalk. If a sidewalk is provided, no pedestrian shall, unless required by other circumstances, walk along and upon the portion of a roadway paved for vehicular traffic.
Each state in the U.S. has its own set of regulations governing pedestrian right-of-way. For example, California law states that drivers must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians crossing the roadway within any marked or unmarked crosswalk at an intersection.
Follow the rules of the road and obey signs and signals. Walk on sidewalks whenever they are available. If there is no sidewalk, walk facing traffic and as far from traffic as possible. Cross streets at crosswalks or intersections.
