Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Slow down — uneven pavement ahead, keep control
A 'BUMP' warning alerts you to uneven pavement. Hitting bumps at high speed can cause loss of tire contact with the road, misalignment, or damage to suspension. Slowing restores control and reduces damage.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A.Accelerate to clear the bump quicklyAccelerating over a bump can launch the vehicle, break suspension components, and reduce control.

- D.Park your vehicle — repairs are underwayActive repair zones use orange temporary-condition signs, not yellow permanent-condition 'BUMP' warnings.
