Can stress alter your ability to drive safely?

Correct answer

Yes.

Yes. Intense or prolonged stress can promote distraction, impulsiveness and risky behaviour. In the exhaustion stage, fatigue and impaired performance can occur. Effects vary by person and stage: it should not be claimed that reaction ability and time taken to react always increase together. If unfit to drive safely, do not start or stop in a safe place.
