Ch. 5 · 第4節 安全な速度と車間距離

When a driver is fatigued, it takes longer to recognize and judge danger, so the braking distance becomes longer.

[True / False · Easy]

Answer: True

Explanation

Chapter 5, Section 4, 2(2) of the Rules of the Road states that when a driver is fatigued, it takes longer to recognize and judge danger, causing the braking distance to become longer. Fatigue delays reaction time, which in turn increases the overall stopping distance.
