What should you do when approaching a pedestrian crossing with a crossing guard present?

  1. Stop and yield the right-of-way to pedestrians.

  2. Slow down and proceed with caution.

  3. Honk your horn to alert the crossing guard.

  4. Maintain your speed and continue driving.

The correct answer is: Stop and yield the right-of-way to pedestrians.

When approaching a pedestrian crossing with a crossing guard present, it is important to follow traffic laws and be cautious. Option A is the correct answer because pedestrians have the right-of-way at a crossing and it is your responsibility as a driver to stop and allow them to safely cross. Option B may seem like a valid choice, but it is still important to fully stop and yield to the pedestrians before proceeding with caution. Honking your horn in option C is not necessary and can be distracting to the crossing guard and other drivers. Finally, option D is incorrect because it goes against traffic laws and puts pedestrians at risk. It is important to always prioritize the safety of pedestrians when driving.
