Zorluk: OrtaHazard Perception and Anticipation

At a blind T-junction in a built-up area where buildings obstruct the view, looking for vehicle reflections in shop windows or parked vehicle glass is a recognized technique to anticipate approaching traffic.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

True
The statement is true because scanning for reflections in shop windows, parked vehicles, or street furniture helps drivers detect oncoming traffic early when physical obstructions block direct line of sight.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the observational limitation at a blind junction
Direct line of sight to approaching traffic on the major road is blocked by physical structures such as buildings.
Recognising reduced visibility prompts the driver to search for secondary visual clues.
2
Apply proactive hazard anticipation techniques
Scanning reflective surfaces like shopfront glazing reveals moving shapes, vehicle outlines, or headlight reflections before the vehicle itself emerges.
Early detection gives the driver additional time to assess speed and prepare to give way smoothly.
3
Evaluate the accuracy of the statement
The statement accurately reflects standard DVSA guidance on hazard perception and anticipation in restricted urban environments.
Using reflections as an early warning aid is a standard defensive driving practice.
