What should you do if animals or pedestrians suddenly enter the roadway?

  1. Blast your horn

  2. Swerve to avoid them

  3. Stop and wait until they pass

  4. Accelerate to get through quickly

The correct answer is: Stop and wait until they pass

At the first sight of animals or pedestrians entering the roadway, you should always stop and wait patiently for them to pass. Blasting your horn or accelerating to get through quickly can startle the animals, causing them to potentially run in front of your vehicle and increase the chances of an accident. Swerving to avoid them may also be dangerous, as it can cause you to lose control of the vehicle or potentially hit other obstacles on the road. It is always best to slow down and give the animals or pedestrians time to safely cross the road before continuing on your journey. Remember to prioritize the safety of others on the road.
