When approaching an intersection, what should you do?

  1. Slow down and prepare to stop

  2. Increase speed to get through quickly

  3. Look left, right, and left again

  4. Look right, left, and left again

The correct answer is: Look left, right, and left again

Approaching intersections requires caution and conscious decision making. The most appropriate action to take is to first reduce your vehicle's speed and prepare to stop, as stated in Choice A. Speeding up, as mentioned in Choice B, is dangerous and can lead to hazardous accidents. Choice D suggests looking right first, which is the incorrect order for checking traffic when approaching an intersection. You should always start with looking left, then right, and then left again, which is correctly stated in Choice C. This allows for thorough observation of all incoming traffic and ensures a safe crossing through the intersection.
