Chapter: Ch. 2 Pedestrian Conduct
Section: 第５節 夜間歩くとき
Type: True/False
Difficulty: medium

## Question
At night, when crossing at a location without a traffic light, it is best to choose a dark place to cross.

## Correct answer
False

## Explanation
Section 4 of the text states, "When crossing at a location without a traffic light, choose the brightest place possible, such as where there is street lighting, so the driver can clearly see that you are crossing." Since you should choose a bright place, not a dark place, this statement is incorrect.
