C+EDifficulty 2/5

Which of these factors has a predominant role in road crashes according to DGT road-safety education?

Correct answer

the human factor.

The human factor: attention, chosen speed, hazard perception, physical and mental condition, and road users’ decisions. This does not mean every crash has one cause or that the road and vehicle do not matter. Several factors often combine, so vehicle maintenance and adapting driving to the environment are also necessary.
