What should you do if you are driving and encounter a traffic signal with a flashing red light?

Treat it as a stop sign and proceed when it is safe.
Speed up and pass through the intersection quickly.
Treat it as a caution sign and proceed with caution.
Ignore the flashing light and continue driving.

The correct answer is: Treat it as a stop sign and proceed when it is safe.

If you encounter a traffic signal with a flashing red light while driving, you should treat it as a stop sign and come to a complete stop before proceeding when it is safe to do so. This means that option B, speeding up and passing through the intersection quickly, is incorrect and dangerous. Option C, treating it as a caution sign and proceeding with caution, may lead to confusion and potential accidents as the flashing red light indicates that you must come to a complete stop. Option D, ignoring the flashing light and continuing to drive, is also incorrect as it goes against the traffic laws and may result in penalties. Therefore, option A is the correct course of action in this situation.
