Correct answer

  • ANo perciben correctamente la velocidad a la que se aproximan los vehículos.They do not judge correctly how fast vehicles are approaching.
Explanation

With age, some visual and mental abilities may decline, which makes it harder to judge the speed and distance of approaching vehicles correctly. That is why drivers must take extreme care when there are older people around.
