Question 4968
As speed increases, so does...
- the driver's ability to anticipate traffic situations.
- the fatigue that can occur while driving.
- the effectiveness of the vehicle's safety features.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: the fatigue that can occur while driving.
At high speeds, your body becomes tense. Your pulse and breathing speed up, you sweat more, and you have to concentrate hard. If you keep this up for a long time, fatigue sets in sooner. Meanwhile, your ability to anticipate decreases, and speed doesn't make the car's safety systems more effective.
