I think that is good and it is just enough. I would just change the to a when you say whether or not a blind person is in the (a) crosswalk, because the blind person might be crossing where there is no crosswalk. Nice going.

Subject: [Njagdu] Drivers' Ed - White Cane law
I'm going to propose some language that I think is like what we want added
to drivers' Ed, then y'all can add, delete, or throw my stuff out
altogether. Here goes:
By law, a driver is required to yield to a pedestrian in the crosswalk.
Further, federal and state White Cane laws require a driver to yield to a
blind person using a white cane or a guide dog, whether or not the blind
person is in the crosswalk.
Here is a picture of a blind person with a white cane. The cane is white,
with a red tip.
Here is a picture of a blind person with a guide dog. The dog is wearing
a harness, which the blind person is holding on to.
There you go. Have at it!
Tracy
