Answer:

I will de-accelerate my Prius to allow the red car maneuver.

Explanation:

Recall that the vehicles on the right are moving at the same pace with the SUV, to minimize the tailgating hazard, I will reduce my speed and by so doing slow all vehicles coming from behind my lane. This will allow the red car maneuver to my lane and continue its journey, while follow behind.
