Correct answer

  • ASí; el campo visual disminuye al aumentar la velocidad.Yes; the field of vision narrows as speed increases.

The field of vision narrows as speed increases (tunnel effect): at high speeds the driver takes in less and less information from the sides, so it is best to slow down in complex surroundings.
