- Yes, because driving becomes more uncomfortable.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, because driving becomes more uncomfortable.
Yes. When the road surface is in poor condition, the car vibrates, you're less comfortable, and you have to watch for potholes. That effort makes fatigue set in sooner for any driver, whether they're a novice driver or not. In the image, the roadway is full of potholes.
