Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: You shouldn’t assume that other drivers will always give you right of way.
Defensive driving is based on the assumption that other drivers may make mistakes, be distracted or break the law. So even when the law requires a driver to give you right of way, you should not rely on it; slow down and make sure they actually stop. A signal shows intention only: a driver may signal and not turn, or may leave a signal on by mistake.
