Western Australian Current Regulations Western Australian Current Regulations (1) Where any of these
regulations require a driver or pedestrian to give way to a person or vehicle,
the requirement takes effect when there is a reasonable possibility that, if
he or she proceeded, he or she would collide or come into conflict with, or
create any other dangerous situation with regard to, that person or vehicle;
and, in that event, he or she is obliged to slow down to such an extent, or,
as the circumstances may require, stop and remain stationary for such time, as
may be necessary to allow the person or vehicle to continue on his, her or its
course.
(2) Where any of these
regulations require a driver who is turning from a carriageway at an
intersection to give way to a pedestrian who is crossing the carriageway that
the driver is entering, the requirement applies if and only if the
pedestrian’s line of travel in crossing the carriageway is essentially
perpendicular to the edges of the carriageway the driver is entering.
