The driver __________ crashed the car, but he braked just in time.
The driver __________ crashed the car, but he braked just in time.
- almost
- often
- quickly

'Braked just in time' means the crash nearly happened but did not, so 'almost crashed'. 'Often' and 'quickly' contradict the braking, and 'fastly' is not a word.
