Abstract
Factors expected to influence yielding by motorists to a pedestrian waiting to cross a city street were examined. The subjects were 160 motorists passing through a marked crosswalk. The motorists were significantly more likely to stop for an assertive pedestrian who entered the crosswalk than for a passive pedestrian who remained on the sidewalk. Motorist yielding was also greater for a brightly clothed pedestrian than for a drably clothed pedestrian.
