Not all crosswalks are marked, but the Traffic Safety Act stipulates the rules of pedestrian safety should be followed at all intersections.
Drivers who fail to yield to pedestrians can be ticketed and fined $575.
According to the Traffic Bylaw, pedestrians may only cross a roadway within a crosswalk, including any intersection connecting sidewalks, curbs or edges of the road.
Pedestrians must obey all traffic signs and control devices when crossing the road.
Pedestrians who jaywalk, meaning they cross outside of a crosswalk or start crossing after the walk light has ended, can be ticketed and fined $250.
