Correct answer
Driving at a speed inappropriate for the conditions.
Driving at a speed unsuited to the road, traffic, visibility, grip or vehicle. Staying below the maximum limit does not guarantee an appropriate speed. A low speed may be necessary for the conditions; it is not dangerous merely because it is low. This question does not establish a statistical ranking of crash causes.
