Questions Learners Have About Pedestrian Traffic Lights

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Pedestrian Traffic Lights, including how questions match the official theory exam in Germany, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What do the red hand and green figure pedestrian signals mean?

A red hand signal means 'Do not cross, wait.' A green figure signal means 'You may cross, but still look out for traffic and continue swiftly if the light changes during your crossing.'

As a driver, what should I do if my light turns green but pedestrians are still crossing?

You must wait. Pedestrians who entered the crossing on their green signal have the right-of-way to complete their crossing, even if their light has since changed to red or your vehicle light has turned green.

How should cyclists behave at a signalised pedestrian crossing?

Cyclists must generally observe the traffic lights for vehicle traffic. If there are no specific cycle traffic lights, they should follow the vehicle signals. If they choose to use a pedestrian crossing on their bike, they must dismount and walk their bicycle, effectively becoming a pedestrian.

Is there a penalty for blocking a pedestrian crossing during a red light?

Yes, blocking a pedestrian crossing, even if your vehicle light eventually turns green but you cannot clear the crossing due to traffic, is prohibited and can result in a significant fine according to German traffic regulations (StVO).
