What should you do if you encounter a pedestrian using a white cane at a crosswalk?

Proceed without stopping.
Sound your horn to alert the pedestrian.
Stop and wait for the pedestrian to cross completely.
Slow down and proceed with caution.

The correct answer is: Stop and wait for the pedestrian to cross completely.

If you encounter a pedestrian using a white cane at a crosswalk, it is important to stop and wait for them to cross completely. White canes are used by individuals with visual impairments to navigate their surroundings, and it is our responsibility as drivers to ensure their safety. Proceeding without stopping or sounding your horn can startle the pedestrian and put them in danger. While slowing down and proceeding with caution may seem like a safe option, it is still important to come to a complete stop and wait for the pedestrian to cross safely.
