Wait five seconds, then proceed.

When stopped at a stop sign where you cannot see cross traffic, yield to any pedestrians and then carefully pull forward past the stop line until you can see clearly. Check for traffic and pedestrians. Go ahead when the intersection is clear.

4. You need to use extra caution when driving near a pedestrian using a white cane because:

He or she is deaf.

He or she is a police officer.

He or she is blind.
