Correct answer: Hold the wheel firmly and brake hard, trying to stay in your lane.. Explanation: When an animal appears on the road, a sudden swerve to avoid it is especially dangerous — you can lose control, veer into oncoming traffic, or leave the road. The safest move is to brake hard, cut your speed as much as possible, and keep going straight.. KET reference: KET 127: When choosing speed, the driver must account for the conditions so as to stop before any foreseeable obstacle; KET 128: when road safety is threatened, the driver must slow down, even stop completely.
