Pedestrian crossing
Information signsSign no. 4.11OSR art. 47
What the sign says
Blue square: the crossing is here. A pedestrian on it, or clearly about to step on, has priority and the vehicle stops.
The exam trap
In the five metres before the crossing, stopping is forbidden and so is overtaking — including passing a stationary vehicle.

The signs are the official depictions by the Federal Roads Office, from the annexes of the Signalling Ordinance (SR 741.21): official works, unprotected under Art. 5 of the Copyright Act. The explanations, by contrast, are written from federal law — never taken from a third-party catalogue.
