Your vehicle is in a traffic emergency and may collide with another vehicle if you do not take action. Which of these is a good rule to remember at such a time?

Question

Accepted Answer

B: You can almost always turn to miss an obstacle more quickly than you can stop.. In an emergency situation, it is often more expedient to turn to avoid an accident than to attempt to stop in time. Often, it is not feasible to stop in the amount of time or within the distance given and if a safe path can be identified veering to one side to avoid the collision may be the best action to take.
