Outside built-up areas, who must always walk on the right-hand side of the road?
Traffic rules
Explanation
Outside built-up areas, **groups of pedestrians led by a person** must always walk on the right. This is because, like vehicles, they must follow traffic rules that ensure order and safety on the roads.
- **Walking on the right:** On two-way roads, both vehicles and led groups of pedestrians must stay in the right lane. This is crucial to avoid accidents and facilitate traffic flow.
- **Safety on the road:** By walking on the right, groups of pedestrians led by a person can be more easily visible to drivers, reducing the risk of accidents.
- **Exception for led groups:** While individual pedestrians may have more flexibility in certain situations, organized groups must follow stricter rules to ensure the safety of everyone involved.
In summary, the rule that led groups of pedestrians must walk on the right outside built-up areas is a safety measure aimed at protecting both pedestrians and drivers.
