Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is that they have a lower perception of risk and do not respect the rules. Lack of driving experience prevents the correct evaluation of dangerous situations (objective risk vs. subjective risk), leading the driver to take more risks than necessary. Additionally, statistically, this group tends to respect traffic regulations less. It is important to note that it is not due to a lack of reflexes; in fact, young drivers often have excellent physical capabilities, but they fail in decision-making and anticipation.
