Correct answer
- BEvitar un posible accidente por fatiga o sueño.To prevent a possible accident caused by fatigue or sleepiness.
The purpose of the ADAS 'fatigue detection' system is to prevent a possible accident caused by fatigue or sleepiness. This is essential because driver fatigue is a significant risk factor for road safety and one of the main causes of accidents. The traffic rules mention the importance of the driver's attention and concentration, and recognising these states of fatigue can help the driver decide to stop and rest, and so prevent incidents. This is in line with the principles of driving rationally and efficiently to minimise risks on the road.
