What is an unmarked crosswalk?

An unmarked crosswalk is a designated crossing area for pedestrians to safely cross the road, but is not visibly marked with painted lines or signage.

Unmarked crosswalks are typically located at intersections or junctions where pedestrians are expected to cross the road. They are legally recognized as pedestrian crossings, even without the traditional markings.

Drivers are required by law to yield the right of way to pedestrians at unmarked crosswalks, just as they would at marked crosswalks. It is important for both drivers and pedestrians to exercise caution and attentiveness at unmarked crosswalks to ensure everyone's safety.

Local jurisdictions may have specific laws and regulations regarding unmarked crosswalks, so it is important to familiarize oneself with the rules and guidelines in the area.
