Show answer
Correct answer
- CAutopistas y autovías.Motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías).
Monotony and reduced attention while driving occur most often on motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías) because of their specific features. These roads usually have straight layouts, less variety in the surroundings and less interaction with other road users than conventional roads or urban roads. This more predictable and uniform environment can make the driver feel too comfortable, so they relax too much, lose concentration and may even become drowsy.
