What should you do if you see a pedestrian crossing the road ahead?

Honk your horn to alert the pedestrian.
Slow down and proceed with caution.
Speed up to pass the pedestrian quickly.
Maintain your speed and continue driving.

The correct answer is: Slow down and proceed with caution.

When approaching a pedestrian crossing the road, it is important to slow down and proceed with caution. Honking your horn may startle the pedestrian and potentially cause them to make a mistake. Speeding up to pass the pedestrian quickly is dangerous and does not give the pedestrian enough time to cross safely. Maintaining your speed and ignoring the pedestrian is also unsafe and disrespectful to their right of way. Slowing down allows you to be prepared for any unexpected actions from the pedestrian and gives them enough time to cross safely. Thus, the correct action to take when seeing a pedestrian crossing the road is to slow down and proceed with caution.
