What should you do when approaching a flashing red arrow at an intersection?

Proceed without stopping
Full stop; proceed when intersection is clear
Slow down but do not stop
Yield to oncoming traffic

The correct answer is: Full stop; proceed when intersection is clear

When approaching a flashing red arrow at an intersection, the appropriate action is to come to a full stop and only proceed when the intersection is clear. This is similar to a traffic signal displaying a solid red light, indicating that you must stop before the intersection and ensure that it is safe to continue. A flashing red arrow signals that there may be specific restrictions or directions regarding how to proceed; thus, treating it as a stop sign is essential. Once you have stopped, you should assess the situation, yield to any oncoming traffic or pedestrians, and continue only when it is safe to do so. This ensures that you are following traffic laws, promoting safety, and preventing potential accidents at the intersection.
