If you need to leave the road due to traffic in a traffic emergency, what should you do?
Answer: C — Avoid braking until your speed has dropped to about 20mph
You should avoid braking too quickly in a traffic emergency because it can cause your vehicle to lose control or potentially cause a collision with other drivers. Turning sharply to avoid obstacles can also be dangerous and potentially lead to a crash. The best option is to gradually reduce your speed until you can safely leave the road or maneuver through traffic.
