A pedestrian is standing at an ordinary crosswalk at a signalized intersection — not a marked pedestrian crossover, and no crossing guard is present. Are you legally required to stop and wait for them to clear the entire roadway before proceeding, the same as you would at a pedestrian crossover?

Correct answer: B. No — that full-roadway stop-and-wait duty applies at crossovers, school crossings, and wherever a crossing guard is present, not at an ordinary crosswalk without a guard
The government's own guidance draws this distinction directly: "At crosswalks, drivers are only required to stop and yield the entire roadway when a school crossing guard is present." A plain crosswalk without a crossing guard is governed by ordinary intersection right-of-way rules instead — pedestrians in the crosswalk still have the right of way, but the stronger "wait until they've fully cleared the roadway" duty is reserved for pedestrian crossovers, school crossings, and crossing-guard locations.
