Question 5620
What is one of the causes behind many traffic accidents involving young drivers?
- The perception of driving as a dangerous activity.
- Not following the rules of the road.
- A greater perception of risk.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Not following the rules of the road.
Breaking the rules is behind many accidents involving young people, for example driving too fast or driving after drinking or taking drugs. Many young people see the rules as a punishment that limits their freedom, so they do not follow them. Being more aware of risk or seeing driving as dangerous would make them more cautious.
