Question 1704 in the bank

Accidents that are a result of driver fatigue might occur:

  1. On narrow and winding roads only, and not in straight, wide and comfortable road sections.
  2. On roads with long and steep descents only.
  3. Correct answer: When the driver’s level of alertness decreases.
  4. On roads with long and steep uphill sections only.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: When the driver’s level of alertness decreases.

Fatigue dulls a driver's alertness, concentration and reaction time, so a crash can happen on any kind of road once alertness drops. In fact, straight, wide and comfortable roads are monotonous and make dozing off or losing focus even more likely. When you feel tired, stop in a safe place and rest.
