Cevap

Keep your attention focused on the road ahead and maintain a safe speed
When passing an incident on the opposite carriageway or roadside, drivers must resist the urge to look across. Keeping concentration firmly on the road ahead and maintaining a safe, steady speed ensures that you remain fully aware of hazards directly in your path and prevents tailbacks or rear-end collisions.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the external distraction
Recognise that the incident on the opposite carriageway has the potential to draw visual attention away from the path of travel.
Roadside events and flashing emergency lights naturally attract driver attention, leading to potential loss of vehicle control.
2
Maintain forward scanning and steady driving
Keep eyes on the road ahead, monitor following traffic, and avoid slowing down unnecessarily.
Remaining alert to your immediate driving environment prevents secondary incidents and keeps traffic flowing safely.
