1. Correct answer: Slow down to ensure that there no pedestrians in the vicinity.
2. Pass with caution but no need to slow down.
3. Accelerate before pedestrians arrive
4. Sound the horn and accelerate to clear the crossing

WhyEven if nobody is on the crossing, approach more slowly and check that no one is stepping out from behind cars or bushes. A pedestrian can appear at the last moment. Speeding up or honking is dangerous.
