Answer: A — Prepare to stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk

The proper action for drivers when approaching a crosswalk at an airport is to prepare to stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk. This reflects the priority given to pedestrian safety and the legal responsibilities of drivers. At an airport, where there may be high foot traffic due to travelers, ensuring that pedestrians can cross safely is paramount. By preparing to stop, drivers demonstrate awareness of their surroundings and a commitment to following traffic laws that protect pedestrians. This approach not only helps in preventing accidents but also promotes a respectful and safe environment for everyone at the airport.
