angie operates a forklift in an area where a lot of people walk. what should she remember to do when driving in that area?
select all that apply.
sound the horn and take the right-of-way.
slow down and sound the horn.
step down and check to make sure intersections are clear.
look around at intersections.

Explanation:

1. Forklifts do not have automatic right-of-way over pedestrians in walkable areas, so the first option is unsafe and incorrect.
2. Slowing down and sounding the horn alerts pedestrians to the forklift's presence, which is a critical safety practice in high-foot-traffic zones.
3. Stepping down to check intersections ensures the operator has full visibility of any hidden pedestrians or hazards that may not be visible from the forklift seat.
4. Looking around at intersections is a basic safety step to scan for pedestrians and obstacles before proceeding.

Answer:

Slow down and sound the horn.
Step down and check to make sure intersections are clear.
Look around at intersections.
