Under California law, drivers must yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk. That includes marked crosswalks with white lines and unmarked crosswalks at corners of street sidewalks. A driver that hits a pedestrian in any crosswalk can be found automatically liable for the accident under the doctrine of negligence per se.
