When you are approaching an intersection with a green light, you should:

  1. Slow down and prepare to stop

  2. Stop and then proceed when safe

  3. Accelerate to make it through the intersection

  4. Prepare to make a right turn

The correct answer is: Stop and then proceed when safe

If you select A Slowing down and preparing to stop when approaching an intersection with a green light is unnecessary and potentially dangerous. The green light indicates that it is safe to proceed through the intersection without stopping, as long as there are no other traffic signals indicating otherwise. If you select B: This is the correct answer. When approaching an intersection with a green light, you should stop and make sure it is safe to proceed before continuing through. If you select C: Accelerating to make it through the intersection is incorrect. It is always important to follow the speed limit and adjust your speed accordingly when approaching an intersection. If you select D: Unless you plan on making a right turn at the intersection, this is also incorrect. The question is asking about what to do when proceeding straight through an intersection with a green light.
