Under the Road Traffic Act, which of the following correctly defines a "safety zone"?
💡 Hint
Article 2 of the Road Traffic Act distinguishes similar-looking parts of the road by WHO they are for, WHERE they are, and HOW they are marked. Recall the definitions of a safety zone, roadside area, pedestrian-only road and roundabout, and match each with its key words.
Answer: ①
Explanation
Under Article 2, item 14 of the Road Traffic Act, a safety zone is a part of the road marked with safety signs or similar structures for the safety of crossing pedestrians or passing motor vehicles and horses. The marked edge of a road without a sidewalk is a roadside area (item 11), a pedestrian-only road is item 31, and a counterclockwise circular road is a roundabout (item 13-2).
