What should you do in this situation?

Your answer is correct because in this situation, you should reduce speed and be ready to brake.

The image shows a pedestrian standing near the road and a tractor partially blocking the view ahead. In German traffic rules, when you see pedestrians close to the road or obstacles that limit your sight, you must slow down and prepare to stop if necessary to avoid accidents. Continuing to drive as before without reducing speed would be unsafe and irresponsible because you might not be able to react in time.

Always approach such situations cautiously by reducing your speed and being alert to any sudden movements or obstacles. This approach ensures safety for pedestrians and other road users.
