What should you do when approaching a construction zone?

Maintain your speed and proceed as usual.
Reduce your speed and be prepared to stop.
Increase your speed to get through the zone quickly.
Follow the construction workers' instructions, regardless of traffic signals.

The correct answer is: Reduce your speed and be prepared to stop.

When approaching a construction zone, it is important to slow down and be prepared to stop if needed. Construction zones often have reduced speed limits and may have obstacles or workers in the road. Increasing your speed or ignoring traffic signals can be dangerous for both yourself and the workers at the construction site. By reducing your speed, you are able to safely navigate through the construction zone and be prepared for any unexpected changes or instructions from construction workers. Therefore, option B is the safest and most responsible choice when approaching a construction zone.
