Correct answer
It can increase aggression and reckless behaviour.
It can increase aggression, impulsivity and reckless behaviour, reduce risk perception and impair attention. It does not always improve anticipation or eliminate fatigue. Effects vary with the phase and the person: the alarm phase may increase activation, whereas exhaustion slows decision-making and brings on fatigue more readily. It is therefore incorrect to claim that all stress always makes decisions either slower or faster. If it impairs safe driving, stop somewhere safe and rest.
