Cevap

Slow down and be prepared to stop, anticipating that a child may run out into the road.
When a ball rolls into the road near a play area or residential setting, drivers must anticipate that a child might follow it into traffic without looking. The correct action is to slow down immediately, prepare to stop, and scan the area between parked cars.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the rolling ball as an early indicator of a developing hazard near a playground.
Recognise that a child may be chasing the ball into the carriageway without checking for traffic.
Children often lack mature hazard perception and can act impulsively in play environments.
2
Reduce vehicle speed smoothly, cover the brake pedal, and scan between parked vehicles.
Stopping distance is significantly reduced, allowing an immediate stop if a child emerges.
Parked cars create blind spots that obscure pedestrians stepping off the pavement.
