If a commercial driver comes upon a distracted driver, either oncoming or ahead of the driver, they should:
  1. Keep a close eye on that driver and give them plenty of room.
  2. Do nothing, as distractions only last a few seconds.
  3. Flash their headlights at the other driver.
  4. Honk at the distracted driver.
Explanation
Answer: A - The best course of action for a commercial driver to take when confronted with a distracted driver is to keep a close eye on the driver and to give the driver plenty of room. It is not advisable to honk or flash your lights unless you believe the other driver is about to endanger themself or someone else and getting their immediate attention is required. If you encounter a distracted driver in oncoming traffic who is drifting between lanes, be ready to take evasive action.
