What should a driver do if approached by an unmarked car that has flashing red and blue lights?

  1. Call 911

  2. Speed away

  3. Keep driving

  4. Pull over to the side of the road

The correct answer is: Pull over to the side of the road

A If you are unsure whether the unmarked car is actually a police vehicle, calling 911 is the safer option than pulling over to the side of the road. B: Speeding away from an unmarked car with flashing lights is never a good idea as it could be a legitimate police vehicle and you could be cited for evading law enforcement. C: Continuing to drive is also not the recommended action as you could potentially miss important instructions from the driver of the unmarked car, or aggravate the situation by appearing adversarial. D: The safest and most appropriate action in this situation is to pull over to the side of the road and wait for further instructions from the driver of the unmarked car. This will allow you and the officer to communicate and resolve the situation safely.
