If you encounter a solid yellow light, you should:

  1. Stop immediately

  2. Continue driving

  3. Slow down and prepare to stop

  4. Turn around

The correct answer is: Slow down and prepare to stop

When you encounter a solid yellow light while driving, it indicates that the traffic signal is about to turn red. In this situation, you should slow down and prepare to stop safely before the light turns red. This allows you to avoid running a red light and potentially causing an accident. Stopping immediately (option A) could be dangerous if you're too close to the intersection when the light changes. Continuing to drive (option B) may lead to running a red light, which is against the law and unsafe. Turning around (option D) is not a correct reaction to encountering a solid yellow light. The best course of action is to slow down and be prepared to stop when it is safe to do so.
