Question

question 22(multiple choice worth 3 points) (lesson 6.4 lc) the tailgating vehicle is a hazard to you because braking suddenly may ○ cause your brakes to fail ○ result in the tailgater hitting you from the rear ○ distract the driver ahead of you ○ result in the tailgater getting a ticket

Explanation:

• Analyze each option:
• "cause your brakes to fail": Sudden braking doesn't typically cause brake failure.
• "result in the tailgater hitting you from the rear": A tailgating vehicle is close behind. If you brake suddenly, the tailgater may not have enough time to stop, leading to a rear - end collision.
• "distract the driver ahead of you": You are the one braking, not the driver ahead, so this is irrelevant.
• "result in the tailgater getting a ticket": The immediate hazard of sudden braking with a tailgater is a collision, not the tailgater getting a ticket.

Answer:

B. result in the tailgater hitting you from the rear
