When faced with a flashing red light, you must...?

Slow down and proceed with caution
Come to a complete stop and move through the intersection when safe
Yield to oncoming traffic only
Accelerate to clear the intersection quickly

The correct answer is: Come to a complete stop and move through the intersection when safe

When faced with a flashing red light, you must come to a complete stop and move through the intersection when it is safe to do so. Doing otherwise, such as slowing down or accelerating, can result in potential accidents and is not the correct course of action. Stopping at a flashing red light allows for proper caution, allowing for any crossing traffic to pass through safely. Simply yielding to oncoming traffic is also not the correct response, as the flashing red light indicates that all vehicles must come to a complete stop before proceeding. Similarly, accelerating to clear the intersection quickly can be dangerous for both yourself and others on the road. Therefore, the best and safest option when encountering a flashing red light is to come to a complete stop and proceed cautiously when it is safe to do so.
