What should you do when approaching a crossing during the driving exam?

  1. Get in the proper lane and look in each direction

  2. Speed up to clear the crossing quickly

  3. Stop completely before proceeding

  4. Use your horn to alert other drivers

The correct answer is: Get in the proper lane and look in each direction

Choosing to get in the proper lane and look in each direction when approaching a crossing is essential for safe driving. This action ensures that you are positioned correctly to navigate the intersection while also allowing you to assess any oncoming traffic, pedestrians, or signals. Looking in both directions helps prevent accidents and promotes awareness of your surroundings, which is a critical skill evaluated during a driving exam. The other options, while related to crossing behavior, do not emphasize the fundamental safety practices necessary when approaching a crossing. Speeding up can increase the risk of accidents, while stopping completely is not always required unless there is a stop sign or red light. Using the horn might startle other drivers or pedestrians and is generally not recommended unless absolutely necessary for safety.
