When driving, do you stop at the pedestrian crossing's stoplight if it's on the red light? even if there's no one crossing?

Yes, full stop esp at school zone. But sometimes no (but with full awareness) during night time and not in familiar area.

I always try to, most of the time I do. If I'm not familiar I usually slow down so that makes it easier for me to stop also. If I overshoot it and nobody's behind me, and some pedestrians are crossing, I back up - it is just common road courtesy to do so. Respect them, they respect you. Not only on pedestrian crossings but on sidewalks when pedestrians are walking. I let them pass first then enter when it's clear and I can move on.

before the pedestrian crossing dapat. there is what is called the "limit line", that solid white line before a pedestrian crossing. vehicles should never go beyond the limit line when stopped before a pedestrian lane. it is a traffic violation to cross the limit line when the light is red, and i think a driver can even be charge with a criminal offense for endangering the life of pedestrians when his vehicle goes beyond the limit line. sadly it is not enforced in the philippines.

I always follow the traffic light... but when it's 3am and I have a clear wide view and I can see that no one's crossing, I stop for a moment, look left and right, and proceed slowly.

I always stop at ped crossings... except if there's no one crossing, then just zoom on through...

oo naman.basta nag red yong stop light sa pedestrian full stop din ako.then sa mga pedestrians naman na alang stop light, tingin sa kanan at kaliwa kung me tatawid.kung meron, stop kung ala naman go ahead.sa pinas baliktad ata e.pedestrian pa magmamadaling lumipat kasi baka sagasaan or bubusinahan.

everyday route ko ang roxas blvd at luneta. everytime mag stop ang traffic light dyan maski madaling araw ay humihinto ako.

Pero ma i share ko lang... sobrang asar ko kanina. Nasa quirino ako going to turn right at Osmena hiway and then may tatawid na medyo halfway na sa road kaya huminto ako para pagbinyan ang tumatawid....akalain mo ba naman businahan ako ng malakas ng taxi na nasa likod ko......aba-aba !!!! di ko talaga natiis at hinarangan ko ng daan yung taxi saka ko tiningnan ng masama. Medyo hinihintay-hintay ko kung anong reaction pero talagang sobrang nagbagal sya ng makita nyang na offend ako hanggang sa kumanan ng san andres st. .... Bihira akong maasar sa kalsada at matiis ako pero mahirap talagang tiisin na hindi mainis sa mga ganyang tao.

i do slow down even when theres no pedestrian crossing but then if it is really clear to speed up then i'll accelerate again. no point to totally stop if no one is crossing.
