Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
If player A does not stop, player B's best response would be to stop. If player B does not stop and they both continue racing towards each other, player B will incur a loss of -10. However, if player B stops, player A swerves and incurs a loss of -8, while player B gains 3. Therefore, player B stopping is the best response in this case.
