The give-way vessel should either slow down or change course to avoid a collision. This action is essential to ensure safety on the water. By either reducing speed or altering its path, the give-way vessel increases the distance between itself and the stand-on vessel (the one that has the right of way), thereby preventing accidents and ensuring safe navigation.
