If it looks like a collision may happen, you should immediately

  1. Accelerate

  2. Brake suddenly

  3. Turn away

  4. Yield to the other vehicle

The correct answer is: Turn away

When you are facing a potential collision, accelerating can lead to even bigger and intense impact. Braking suddenly can cause a rear-end collision or skidding, making the situation worse. Yielding to the other vehicle may also increase the risk of collision as both vehicles may not have enough space to maneuver. Therefore, the best option in this situation is to turn away to avoid the collision or minimize its impact.
