Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Any event can upset the driver and provoke impulsive reactions.
Depression often comes with anxiety and irritability. That's why a honking horn or a slow car ahead can trigger an exaggerated, impulsive reaction. You can have a category B driver's license if you have depression. A severe disorder with a high risk of dangerous behavior prevents this unless a psychiatrist or psychologist provides a favorable report.
