Show answer
Correct answer
- Cen los tramos rectos.on straight stretches.
Explanation
Most accidents happen on straight stretches, because they make up most of the road network and on them drivers tend to go faster, become overconfident and get distracted or tired because of the monotony. Bends are more dangerous per kilometre, but overall they account for fewer accidents.
