What is NOT recommended when approaching a jaywalker in the roadway?

When approaching a jaywalker in the roadway, stopping and waving the jaywalker across the street is not recommended because it can create confusion and a potential safety hazard. Jaywalkers may not always be aware of the surrounding traffic or may misinterpret the gesture, leading to unsafe situations. Instead, it is crucial to prioritize safety by being prepared to stop and covering the brake as you approach, which allows for quick reaction if the jaywalker suddenly enters the roadway. Ensuring that the jaywalker remains at the side of the road also helps maintain control over the situation, minimizing the risk of an accident. Practicing caution and clear communication is essential for the safety of both drivers and pedestrians in these situations.
