What should you do if another vehicle is giving you the right of way?

Honk your horn to indicate you are taking the right of way
Flash your headlights to thank the other driver
Signal your intention to take the right of way
Proceed as if no agreement has been made

The correct answer is: Proceed as if no agreement has been made

If another vehicle is giving you the right of way, you do not need to do anything. The other driver is allowing you to proceed first, so you should continue through the intersection or merge, depending on the situation. The other options (A, B, C) are incorrect because they suggest unnecessary actions that could potentially confuse or disrupt the flow of traffic. Honking your horn or flashing your headlights could be interpreted as aggressive or disruptive behavior and signaling your intention to take the right of way is also unnecessary since it has already been given to you by the other driver. The best course of action in this situation is to simply proceed safely and smoothly through the intersection or merge.
