Pedestrian crossing guidelines and right of way.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to pedestrian crossing guidelines and right of way

This bill would permit pedestrians to legally cross a roadway at any point, including outside of a marked or unmarked crosswalk, and allow for crossing against traffic signals. It would legalize the activity commonly referred to as “jaywalking” and specify that no penalties can be imposed for jaywalking.
