Question:1

What is the advantage of driving at a low speed during dangerous situations?


  • The driver’s reacting time is longer and he has enough time for making the right decisions.
  • The driver’s reacting, braking and stopping times are all longer, and therefore safety is improved.
  • The drrivers quicker reaction, braking and stopping times are all shorter.
