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, even if there's no one crossing.
Yes, but only if someone's crossing.
Yes, but only if there's policeman watching.
No, I don't stop even if it's red light.

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.
Iyan ang pinaka-violated na batas trapiko diyan sa Rizal Park....

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.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
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.
Korak! Parehas tayo.

Nu'ng sa Singapore pa ako nagwu-work, madalas ko makita, sign na ito malapit sa condo na tinitirhan namin:
"Slow Down: Zebra Crossing Ahead".
Kala ko may mga wildlife na pakalat-kalat sa area, and they're free to roam around. Kala ko may mga zebra na natawid.Ha-ha! Yun pala, Zebra Crossing is the same as pedestrian crossing.
Kasi daw parang guhit ng Zebra yung pedestrian crossing sabi ng isang local.
Sa atin naman..........Ped Xing!Kala ko pinangalan sa isang intsik yung tawiran.

full stop. at ayaw ko sakupin ang pedestrian lane. dahil kung ako naman ang pedestrian,
ayokong me mga kotse na atat na maka-andar agad. even when there's nobody crossing.
kapag dis oras naman, menor muna. as in mga 3km/h hehehe pero kapag walang natawid
at wala din sasakyan na tatawid, go na ako. ;)
Oo naman. Rule of law dapat, hindi rule of force.
Then again, I've only been driving for a little over a month. (Takot pa lumabag, hehehe...)
Basta may pedestrial (zebra) line, i slow down, if there's someone standing sa sidewalk, I stop fully kahit magisa pa yan... Lalo na sa business areas where madaming tumatawid...
Dami ko na kaaway sa Emerald Ave dati na di nagmemenor sa may harap ng post office and sa may Figaro...
