	Because non-intersection school crossings are generally unexpected by the road user, warning signs (see [[908.2 Signs (MUTCD Chapter 7B) #908.2.3\|EPG 908.2.3]]) should be installed for all marked school crosswalks at non-intersection locations. Adequate visibility of students by approaching motorists and of approaching motorists by students should be provided by parking prohibitions or other appropriate measures.
