When the road is icy, you should:

Drive at the same speed as other drivers
Increase speed and pass other drivers
Reduce your speed
Drive faster than other drivers

The correct answer is: Reduce your speed

When the road is icy, driving at the same speed as other drivers (Option A) is not recommended as this may lead to collisions due to reduced traction. Increasing speed and passing other drivers (Option B) can be dangerous as there is a higher risk of losing control of the vehicle on icy roads. Driving faster than other drivers (Option D) can also be dangerous as it increases the likelihood of skidding or sliding on the icy surface. Therefore, reducing your speed (Option C) is the best option to ensure safety while driving on icy roads. This allows for better control and allows more time to react to any potential hazards on the road.
