Show answer
Correct answer
- ALas aceleraciones fuertes y los frenazos bruscos.Hard acceleration and sudden braking.
Explanation
Hard acceleration and sudden braking can make tyres wear more than usual because of the friction and force on them during these manoeuvres. This can make the tread wear faster and shorten the life of the tyres. It is important to drive smoothly and moderately to avoid early tyre wear.
