Turn on hazard lights, press brake pedal steadily
Check mirrors, honk horn, press brake pedal sharply
Turn on headlights, release accelerator, press brake pedal steadily

The correct answer is: Check mirrors, release accelerator, press brake pedal steadily

One possible explanation is The correct series of actions for making a smooth stop is to first check your mirrors to ensure there are no vehicles or obstacles behind you, then release the accelerator to start slowing down, and finally press the brake pedal steadily to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. This is the safest and most effective way to come to a stop as it allows you to be aware of your surroundings before initiating the braking process. Options B, C, and D are all incorrect because they skip the important step of checking mirrors and/or release the accelerator too late. Option B also suggests turning on hazard lights, which is unnecessary and can be confusing to other drivers. Option C includes an unnecessary and potentially dangerous step of honking the horn, while option D suggests turning on headlights, which is unnecessary for coming to a stop.
