Upon approach, how should you treat pedestrians at a crosswalk?

Slight slow for them
Ignore them
Pass them quickly to maintain speed
Stop and let them cross

The correct answer is: Stop and let them cross

When approaching a crosswalk, it is important to stop and let pedestrians cross. This not only follows traffic laws, but also ensures the safety of both the driver and the pedestrians. It is important to always be aware of your surroundings and be prepared to make a complete stop at a crosswalk. Option A is incorrect because simply "slowing down" may not be enough to allow pedestrians to safely cross. Option B is incorrect because it is never acceptable to ignore the presence of pedestrians at a crosswalk. Finally, option C is incorrect because quickly passing by pedestrians at a crosswalk not only breaks traffic laws but also poses a serious risk to their safety. It is important to prioritize the safety of pedestrians and follow traffic laws by coming to a complete stop and allowing them to cross safely.
