Cevap

Slow down immediately, cover the brake pedal, and anticipate that a child might run into the roadway.
Defensive driving requires anticipating hidden or developing hazards before they materialize. A rolling ball is a classic early warning sign that a child may run out into the street. The safest action is to immediately reduce speed, cover the brake pedal, and prepare to stop.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify early hazard cues
Recognize that a rolling ball in a residential area frequently indicates a child following closely behind.
Defensive driving relies on scanning ahead to detect clues that signal developing hazards.
2
Prepare for immediate stopping
Release the accelerator pedal, place the foot over the brake pedal (covering the brake), and begin slowing down.
Covering the brake significantly reduces total stopping distance by eliminating reaction time delay.
