How are you required to conduct yourself according to the occurrence depicted in the picture?
- Honk loudly to warn that you are approaching.
- Correct answer: Slow down carefully and stop if needed, because a child might be chasing the ball.
- Continue driving and make short and rhythmic honks.
- Accelerate and pass quickly before any child gets to the roadway.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Slow down carefully and stop if needed, because a child might be chasing the ball.
A ball rolling into the road is an early warning that a child may dash out after it without looking. Slow down right away, stay alert and be ready to stop. Honking does not guarantee a child will hear or react, and speeding up to get past first greatly increases the risk of hitting someone.
