What should you do if you encounter a large animal on the road, such as a deer or moose?

  1. Honk your horn to scare the animal away.

  2. Swerve to avoid the animal if it is safe to do so.

  3. Slow down and be prepared to stop if the animal is in your path.

  4. Continue driving at the same speed and hope the animal moves out of the way.

The correct answer is: Slow down and be prepared to stop if the animal is in your path.

If you encounter a large animal on the road, it is important to slow down and be prepared to stop if the animal is in your path. This is the safest option as it allows you to maintain control of your vehicle and potentially avoid a collision. Honking your horn may startle the animal and cause it to panic, potentially making the situation more dangerous. Swerving to avoid the animal is also not advised, as it may lead to loss of control of your vehicle and potentially cause a collision with other vehicles or objects. Continuing to drive at the same speed and hoping the animal moves out of the way is not a reliable strategy and could result in a dangerous situation. Therefore, the best course of action is to slow down and be prepared to stop if needed.
