According to the Alabama Driver Manual, pedestrians have the right-of-way

Explanation

According to the Alabama Driver Manual, you must always yield the right-of-way to pedestrians. Note, though, that this is not exactly how Alabama's traffic laws are written. In Alabama, a pedestrian who suddenly darts out into the middle of the street, far from any crosswalk or signal, does not have the legal right-of-way. You do, and you may use your horn to warn the pedestrian that he or she is crossing illegally (jaywalking). The pedestrian can be cited and fined for doing this. However, Alabama, like most other states, also has a common-sense "due care" law under which you must take whatever steps are necessary to avoid colliding with a pedestrian. Hence, if the jaywalker ignores your warning horn, you must stop for the pedestrian anyway. ,
