Article 38Pedestrians' and Cyclists' Right of Way at Pedestrian and Bicycle Crossings
第三十八条（横断歩道等における歩行者等の優先）
When approaching a pedestrian crossing or a bicycle crossing lane (hereinafter referred to in this Article as a "pedestrian or bicycle crossing"), a vehicle or streetcar must proceed at a speed that will enable it to stop immediately in front of the pedestrian or bicycle crossing (or immediately in front of any stop line indicated by road signs or markings; the same applies hereinafter in this paragraph), unless there are clearly no pedestrians or bicycles (hereinafter referred to in this Article as a "pedestrian or cyclist") ahead of the vehicle or streetcar. In such a case, if a pedestrian or cyclist is crossing or about to cross the pedestrian or bicycle crossing ahead of the vehicle or streetcar, the vehicle or streetcar must come to a stop immediately in front of the pedestrian or bicycle crossing and must not prevent that pedestrian or cyclist from proceeding.
車両等は、横断歩道又は自転車横断帯（以下この条において「横断歩道等」という。）に接近する場合には、当該横断歩道等を通過する際に当該横断歩道等によりその進路の前方を横断しようとする歩行者又は自転車（以下この条において「歩行者等」という。）がないことが明らかな場合を除き、当該横断歩道等の直前（道路標識等による停止線が設けられているときは、その停止線の直前。以下この項において同じ。）で停止することができるような速度で進行しなければならない。この場合において、横断歩道等によりその進路の前方を横断し、又は横断しようとする歩行者等があるときは、当該横断歩道等の直前で一時停止し、かつ、その通行を妨げないようにしなければならない。
When overtaking another vehicle or streetcar on one side before pulling in front of it, the driver of a vehicle or streetcar must come to a stop if the other vehicle or streetcar is stopped at or immediately in front of a pedestrian or bicycle crossing (other than a pedestrian or bicycle crossing where the signal indicated by a traffic light or the alternative signal of an officer prohibits pedestrians and cyclists from crossing at the time the vehicle or streetcar in question is overtaking; the same applies hereinafter in the following paragraph).
A vehicle or streetcar must not, on a pedestrian or bicycle crossing or on a part of the road within 30 meters before the near-side edge of the pedestrian or bicycle crossing, go past the side of another vehicle or streetcar (other than a specified small motorized bicycle or light road vehicle) that is proceeding ahead of it and pull in front of it, except in a case that falls under Article 30, item (iii).
車両等は、横断歩道等及びその手前の側端から前に三十メートル以内の道路の部分においては、第三十条第三号の規定に該当する場合のほか、その前方を進行している他の車両等（特定小型原動機付自転車等を除く。）の側方を通過してその前方に出てはならない。
