BDifficulty 2/5

Which of these behaviours increases a young driver’s crash risk?

Correct answer

Driving at excessive speed.

Excessive speed increases crash risk and severity. It reduces the available margin for detecting and responding to hazards and increases the distance needed to stop. Inexperience or overconfidence can worsen risk, but the behaviour should not be attributed to every young person. Observe limits and adapt speed to conditions.
