b take your foot off the gas pedal and wait to see what happens before reacting further.
c keep driving at the same speed, and wait to see what happens before reacting.

Explanation:

In a two - lane highway passing situation where the vehicle ahead may not complete the pass safely, option A is correct. Slowing down and moving to the right edge gives more space and an escape route if a crash is imminent. Option B (just taking the foot off the gas and waiting) and option C (keeping speed) don't provide proactive safety measures to avoid a potential collision.

Answer:

A. Immediately slow down and move closer to the right edge of the road. Look for an open area on your right, in case you must drive off the road to avoid a crash.
