Question
- Force of impact is determined by all of the following factors, except: A. Impact distance B. Driving experience C. Vehicle weight D. Speed of vehicle
Solution
The answer is B. Driving experience. While driving experience can influence a driver's ability to react and prevent an accident, it does not directly determine the force of impact in an accident. The force of impact is determined by factors such as the distance over which the impact occurs (A), the weight of the vehicle (C), and the speed of the vehicle at the time of impact (D).
