Answer:

D. Slowly and steadily apply your breaks.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a person is being tailgated by another vehicle there's a risk of accident, due to the difference of speeds. When someone is being tailgated by another vehicle, it's because they vehicle doesn't work, cannot move by itself, so one vehicle impulse another.

To avoid any accident, the vehicle that's being tailgated must apply breaks often and slowly to try to maintain the same constant distance and speed than the other vehicle. This constant distance is what avoid accidents.

Therefore, the right answer is D.
