Question 4942
Do shock absorbers in good condition help prevent accidents?
- No, they only contribute to comfort.
- Yes.
- No, not in any case.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes.
Yes. Shock absorbers dampen the body's bouncing and keep the wheels in contact with the ground. If they are worn, the car is harder to control on curves, needs more meters to stop, and the ABS becomes less effective. Besides providing comfort, they help you avoid an accident.
