Question: Defensive driving means:

Answer options:

  • Driving aggressively ✅ Anticipating hazards and being prepared to react
  • Driving slowly always
  • Driving with high beams

Correct answer: Anticipating hazards and being prepared to react

Explanation: Defensive driving focuses on anticipating hazards and being prepared to react, which allows drivers to identify potential dangers early and avoid collisions. This proactive approach aligns with ICBC safety guidelines. Conversely, aggressive driving significantly increases crash risks, while constantly driving slowly can dangerously impede traffic flow and frustrate other road users. High beams must only be used in specific low-visibility situations to avoid blinding oncoming traffic. Understanding defensive driving concepts, such as scanning twelve seconds ahead and maintaining a safe space cushion, is essential for passing the ICBC Class 7 knowledge test and establishing safe real-world driving habits.
