Answer: It really just depends.

Explanation: Pedestrians in a crosswalk have the right of way, Therefore drivers must yield. Pedestrians not yet in a crosswalk should yield to drivers until it's safe to enter the crosswalk.

2.) The child in the crosswalk has the right of way because pedestrians always have right of way since they aren't in a vehicle. You must yield until the pedestrian has cleared the crosswalk even if the signal is green.
