Correct answer

  • CCederles el paso si no disponen de zona peatonal.Give way to them if they have no pedestrian area.

If pedestrians have no pedestrian area, the hard shoulder is the space where they walk: a driver who is going to cross it (for example, to enter or leave the road) must give way to them.
