Correct answer

  • BSe comporte de forma más peligrosa.Behave more dangerously.

Drowsiness increases reaction time, that is, we take longer to perceive a danger and decide what to do; it also reduces attention and perception of the surroundings. That is why a drowsy driver behaves more dangerously.
