In this situation, should you increase the distance when passing a pedestrian?

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

Yes. The video shows a pedestrian walking on the carriageway. When passing a pedestrian the driver should increase the side clearance to keep them safe. A pedestrian is an unprotected road user and their behaviour can be unpredictable. In line with the principle of caution, leave the widest safety margin you can.
