No one has the right-of-way in a crosswalk.

Pedestrians are responsible to stay out of the way of all traffic.

Cars on the right move first.

In a marked crosswalk.

In any crosswalk or intersection.

Come to a full stop and go when it is safe to do so.

Proceed carefully through the intersection, not always stopping.

Stop only for traffic on an intersecting road.

A stop sign means that you must come to a full stop and yield the right-of-way to vehicles and pedestrians in or heading toward the intersection. Go again when it is safe.
