What should you do when approaching an intersection?

Slow down
Increase your speed
Stop and wait for 3 seconds
Look around for other vehicles

The correct answer is: Look around for other vehicles

When approaching an intersection, it is important to look around for other vehicles to ensure that you can safely proceed through the intersection. Option A (slow down) may be necessary depending on the situation, but it is not the most important action to take when approaching an intersection. Option B (increase your speed) is never the correct choice when approaching an intersection. Option C (stop and wait for 3 seconds) is only necessary if there is a stop sign or traffic light at the intersection. Therefore, option D (look around for other vehicles) is the correct and most important action to take when approaching an intersection.
