Correct answer
- BMirar más lejos a medida que aumentamos la velocidad.Look further ahead as our speed increases.
If we drive looking only at the space immediately in front of us, we cannot anticipate what happens further ahead. So our view should cover the distance our vehicle will travel in the next 20 seconds, so that we can foresee possible dangers and act in time, avoiding unnecessary harsh braking and sudden acceleration. That is why, as our speed increases, our view must cover a larger area, as we will travel further in 20 seconds.
