Correct answer

  • ADisminuye los siniestros de tráfico.It reduces road accidents.
Explanation

Energy saving: eco-driving reduces fuel consumption. Less pollution: lower consumption means lower polluting emissions, which improves the environment and air quality. More safety: eco-driving requires applying defensive driving techniques (vision, anticipation and space), which increases safety and reduces risk on the road and road accidents. Lower running and maintenance costs: the vehicle's parts last longer (the engine, brakes, clutch and gearbox suffer less if you drive correctly). More comfort: you avoid sudden acceleration and braking and drive smoothly and calmly, which makes driving more comfortable, with less stress and tension.
