In addition to the provisions of sections 28-1313 and 28-1314, the driver of a vehicle approaching (1) a totally or partially blind pedestrian who is carrying a cane predominantly white or metallic in color or using a dog guide,
(2) a hearing-impaired pedestrian who is using a hearing aid dog, or
(3) a physically disabled pedestrian who is using a service dog shall take all necessary precautions to avoid injury to such pedestrian, and any driver who fails to take such precautions shall be liable in damages for any injury caused such pedestrian. A totally or partially blind pedestrian not carrying such a cane or using a dog guide, a hearing-impaired pedestrian not using a hearing aid dog, or a physically disabled pedestrian not using a service dog in any of the places, accommodations, or conveyances listed in section 20-127 shall have all of the rights and privileges conferred by law upon other persons, and the failure of a totally or partially blind pedestrian to carry such a cane or to use a dog guide, of a hearing-impaired pedestrian to use a hearing aid dog, or of a physically disabled pedestrian to use a service dog in any such places, accommodations, or conveyances does not constitute and is not evidence of contributory negligence.
