Show answer

Correct answer

  • BConducción más automática y menos activa.More automatic and less active driving.
Explanation

Some of the effects of fatigue are: physical exhaustion and a general feeling of tiredness; stiff muscles, because the muscles are not relaxed; slow and imprecise movements; reduced attention; reduced sensory abilities (sight, hearing, etc.); a longer reaction time to external stimuli; loss of motivation at the wheel, so you start driving automatically and much less actively (for example, you pay less attention to the road, make fewer steering corrections, etc.).
