BDifficulty 2/5

Why can limited experience increase a young driver’s risk?

Correct answer

It can make dangerous situations harder to identify and assess.

Experience helps identify dangerous situations, assess risks and anticipate events. Limited experience can make these tasks harder, particularly when combined with overconfidence. Age does not guarantee safety: training, caution and avoiding alcohol, drugs and distractions help prevent crashes.
