LAWS OF MARYLAND

(A) EMERGING.
THE DRIVER OF A VEHICLE EMERGING FROM AN ALLEY,
DRIVEWAY, OR BUILDING SHALL:
(1) STOP IMMEDIATELY BEFORE DRIVING ONTO A
SIDEWALK OR ONTO THE SIDEWALK AREA THAT EXTENDS ACROSS
THE ALLEY, DRIVEWAY, OR BUILDING EXIT;
(2) YIELD THE RIGHT-OF-WAY TO ANY PEDESTRIAN;
AND
(3) ON ENTERING THE ROADWAY, YIELD THE
RIGHT-OF-WAY TO ANY OTHER VEHICLE APPROACHING ON THE
ROADWAY.
(B) ENTERING.
THE DRIVER OF A VEHICLE ENTERING AN ALLEY, DRIVEWAY,
OR BUILDING SHALL YIELD THE RIGHT-OF-WAY TO ANY
PEDESTRIAN.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §§11-705 and 11-705.1.
In both subsections (a) and (b) of this
section, the present phrase "as necessary to
avoid collision" is deleted as an unnecessary
and, therefore, ambiguously limiting modifier
to the simple requirement that the driver
"yield the right-of-way" to a pedestrian.
That he should avoid collision with a
pedestrian goes without saying.
In subsection (a) of this section, the words
"building exit" are added to complete the
designation more accurately.
The only other changes are in style.
21-706. OVERTAKING AND PASSING SCHOOL VEHICLE.
(A) DRIVER TO STOP ON MEETING OR OVERTAKING SCHOOL
VEHICLE.
IF A SCHOOL VEHICLE IS STOPPING OR HAS STOPPED ON A
HIGHWAY ROADWAY AND IS OPERATING THE ALTERNATELY FLASHING
WARNING LIGHTS SPECIFIED IN §22-228 OF THIS ARTICLE, THE
DRIVER OF ANY OTHER VEHICLE MEETING OR OVERTAKING THE
SCHOOL VEHICLE:
(1) SHALL STOP 10 FEET FROM THE REAR OF THE
SCHOOL VEHICLE, IF APPROACHING THE SCHOOL VEHICLE FROM
ITS REAR, OR 10 FEET FROM THE FRONT OF THE SCHOOL
VEHICLE, IF APPROACHING THE SCHOOL VEHICLE FROM ITS
FRONT; AND
