On roads outside built-up areas that do not have a space specifically reserved for them, are pedestrians allowed to walk on their right-hand side?
Traffic rules
Explanation
On **roads outside urban areas**, pedestrians must **always walk on the left**. This is because, by walking on the left, pedestrians can see oncoming vehicles, which increases their safety. However, there is an exception: if there are **reasons of greater safety**, pedestrians may walk on the right. This could occur, for example, if there is an obstacle on the left side that prevents safe passage.
Therefore, the correct answer is that pedestrians can only walk on their right **exceptionally** and when it is safer to do so.
