A pedestrian on a crossing always has priority, with no exception whatsoever.
The text says 'in principle always liable', not 'always, full stop'.
Children near a school or playground behave in traffic just as predictably as adults.
Older people and people with a disability need just as much time and reaction ability in traffic as other adults.
