A 'Zebrastreifen' is the German term for a marked pedestrian crossing (zebra crossing). It gives pedestrians priority over vehicles, except for trams and trains.
You must yield to pedestrians who are already on the crossing or clearly indicate their intention to use it. Approach with moderate speed and be ready to stop if necessary.
Cyclists do not automatically have priority when riding across a pedestrian crossing. To gain pedestrian priority, they must dismount and push their bicycle across the crossing.
No, overtaking other vehicles is strictly forbidden at or directly before a pedestrian crossing (Zebrastreifen) in Germany, as per StVO Section 26 (3).
You are not allowed to stop or park on a pedestrian crossing itself, or within 5 meters *before* it in the direction of travel, according to StVO Anlage 2 Zeichen 293.
If traffic is stopped, you must not drive onto the pedestrian crossing if you would have to wait on it, thereby blocking it for pedestrians (StVO Section 26 (2)).
By completing Pedestrian Crossings, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Germany. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
