What must you do at a steady red light?

Make a lane change
Enter the intersection
Make a complete stop
Increase speed

The correct answer is: Make a complete stop

At a steady red light, you must make a complete stop. This is because a red light indicates that traffic is stopped in all directions and it is unsafe to proceed. Making a lane change or entering the intersection would put you and others in danger. Increasing speed would also be dangerous as it may cause you to collide with other vehicles. Therefore, C is the only safe and legal option in this scenario.
