When approaching a curve in the roadway, you should:

  1. Look straight ahead

  2. Increase your speed

  3. Steer to the right

  4. Slow down

The correct answer is: Slow down

When approaching a curve in the roadway, you should slow down. This is because curves can be unpredictable- you never know if there might be a bump or obstacle that could throw you off course. By slowing down, you give yourself more time to react and adjust to any unexpected changes in the road. Looking straight ahead, increasing your speed, or steering to the right are all risky choices that could cause you to lose control of the vehicle. It is always best to approach curves with caution and at a reduced speed.
