§ 16-11 Vehicles entering intersection or crosswalk.

It shall be unlawful for the driver of any vehicle to enter a street intersection or a marked crosswalk or to drive across a sidewalk in entering or leaving a garage or parking lot unless there is sufficient space beyond the intersection or crosswalk on the right half of the roadway or in the garage or on the parking lot to accommodate the vehicle he is driving or operating without obstructing the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, notwithstanding any traffic control signal indication to proceed.

Except that on a 1-way street, drivers shall not be restricted to the use of the right half of the road but may have access to the entire width thereof beyond the intersection or crosswalk provided sufficient space be available.
