Abstract
The right of way of a pedestrian on a pedestrian crossing The paper is a continuation and an extension of the analysis of Act on Road Traffic regulations regarding pedestrians’ right of way on a pedestrian crossing. The analysis focuses most notably on the basic principles of interpretation of the provisions of the Act such as the right of way, linguistic interpretation and subsidiarity of purposive interpretation. The author also analyses the relation between the terms of a pedestrian “entering the crossing” and one “on the crossing”, both included in the regulation. A comparison between the solution adopted in the Polish Act on Road Traffic and the corresponding regulations provided in the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic as well as respective regulations valid in some other European countries is also presented.
