Correct answer
Auditory sensitivity may decrease.
Fatigue produces several negative effects on driving, including reduced auditory sensitivity. Driving for many hours without resting causes the driver's performance to deteriorate progressively, making driving increasingly dangerous without the driver immediately realising it. The effects of fatigue include blurred vision and reduced auditory sensitivity. Fatigue also causes a feeling of heaviness and muscular stiffness, neck and back pain, migraines and cramps. It also reduces the ability to concentrate, increasing distraction and reducing the effectiveness and precision of manoeuvres because movements become slower and less precise.
