What should operators do under conditions of reduced visibility at night?

Increase speed to minimize time in danger
Proceed with caution and reduce speed
Play loud music
Keep the same speed

The correct answer is: Proceed with caution and reduce speed

In reduced visibility conditions at night, operators should proceed with caution and reduce their speed. This is because visibility is limited, making it harder to see potential hazards on the road. By driving at a slower speed, operators can better react to any obstacles or other vehicles that may suddenly emerge. Increasing speed to minimize time in danger, as suggested in option A, is actually counterproductive as it increases the likelihood of getting into an accident. Playing loud music, as suggested in option C, may distract the driver and hinder their ability to hear warnings or other important sounds on the road. Keeping the same speed, as stated in option D, is also not recommended as it does not take into consideration the reduced visibility and potential dangers of driving at night.
