Explanation
The Rules of the Road, Chapter 2, Section 3, "3 (2)" states: "In particular, vehicles approaching from the left may appear to be far away, but they will come closer while you are crossing, so be careful." Vehicles from the left are dangerous due to distance perception illusions, so option 2 is correct.
