Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Slow down and pass carefully — it may bolt onto the road

Deer and other large animals move unpredictably — they often bolt toward or across a vehicle. Slowing down preserves your ability to stop. Swerving into the oncoming lane risks a head-on collision that is usually worse than striking the animal.

Why the other answers are wrong

  • C.Swerve into the oncoming lane to avoid itSwerving into oncoming traffic risks a fatal head-on.
  • D.Sound your horn loudly and keep speedHonking may not deter wildlife; speed reduction is the proven response.
