When driving a high-deck passenger coach across long sea-crossing bridges or elevated valley viaducts subject to sudden heavy crosswinds (横风), what defensive driving technique should the driver use?

1. Immediately slam the service brakes to a dead stop in the center lane
2. Grip the steering wheel firmly with both hands, reduce vehicle speed smoothly, gently steer against the wind direction to counteract lateral drift, and avoid sudden jerking of the wheel
3. Accelerate to maximum speed to cut through the crosswind faster
4. Release the steering wheel and let the wind steer the vehicle
