Which of the following is not a characteristic of a risk?
Which of the following is not a characteristic of risk?
What is not a characteristic of risk?

B.) Perceived risk does not differ from actual risk
C.) Risk is affected by all road users
D.) Risk can be managed
Get the CORRECT Answer
What are the four characteristics of risk?
A.) Risk is always present
B.) Risk is affected by all roadway users
C.) Perceived risk differs from actual risk
D.) Risk can be managed
Characteristic of risk: Risk is always present, a risk is affected by all road users, Perceived risk differs from actual risk and risk can be managed.
Four characteristics of risk:
1st characteristic: Risk is always present -there is always risk present when driving even if you think it's not
2nd characteristic: Risk is affected by all roadway users -roadway users can increase and decrease risk for themselves and others
3rd characteristic: Perceived risk differs from actual risk -a driver perceives risk as to what they think versus what is actual there
4th characteristic: Risk can be managed -a driver can take certain precautions in order to tease risk (ex. Driving slower, improving visibility)
List three guidelines for assessing risk:
1. Making an aggressive visual search -Consider the chance or possibility of a dangerous situation developing/occurring.
2. Making good decisions with the information gained from visual search -Prepare to change speed or direction to manage or control the situation.
3. Acting on your decisions appropriately -Identify possible alternative actions and consider the consequences of each.
Describe the Perceive -> Decide -> Act sequence and how it applies to reduced risk driving.
# 1st step to reduce risk is to perceive everything in the traffic scene and conduct a visual search. 20 to 30 seconds ahead for objects/conditions. Aware of traction. Find alternate path 15 to 20 seconds ahead if threat develops.
# 2nd step to reduce risk is to make wise decisions with the information gathered from the visual search. Predict actions of other drivers that affect your risk. Assessing the consequences of alternative responses. Determine best course of action.
# 3rd step to reduce risk is to take effective action to reduce your risk. change speed via decelerating, braking, or accelerating. Adjusting position or direction by changing lanes or Turing. Communicating with other road users. (Combination of two or more of the above)
List and explain the three characteristics of risk
1. At risk every minute you are on the road- Always a possibility of something going wrong.
2. New drivers underestimate risk- When drivers feel complacent(not concerned), their crash risk increases.
3. There are always actions to reduce risk- Perceive(visual search of traffic), decide(make smartest decision), and act(change speed and communicate).
Explain how to perform a systematic visual search.
Search 20 to 30 seconds ahead for objects/ conditions that could increase risk. Be aware of available traction on the road. Identify alternate path 12 to 15 seconds ahead so you can steer out of trouble if threat develops.
Explain the benefits of conducting supervised driving sessions.
Supervised driving can help new drivers survive the first few years as they gain valuable experience needed to be a safe driver. Effort is minimal and new drivers require much more assistance.
How does one perform an aggressive visual search?
How to perform an aggressive visual search?
1. Searching 20-30 seconds ahead along your intended path of travel objects or conditions that could increase the level of risk.
2. You also have to be aware of the level of traction and identify a different/ an alternative path of travel 12-15 seconds ahead so you can steer away from a threatening situation before developing/occurring.
Define graduated driver licensing and explain each of the three stages of licensure.
Graduated driver licensing is a system designed to ease new drivers into safe driving by providing practice and skill development under low-risk conditions.
#1 The learners permit- ONLY allowed to drive with qualified supervising driver, 6-12 months.
#2 Provisional license- Generally allowed to drive unsupervised, restrictions to help reduce risk distractions , U18 passenger limit.
#3 Full license- Obtained once meeting all requirements of the intermediate license stage.
Define "Graduated Driver Licensing".
Graduated driver licensing systems (GDLs) are designed to provide new drivers of motor vehicles with driving experience and skills gradually over time in low-risk environments. There are typically three steps or stages through which new drivers pass. An approach to ease new drivers into driving by providing practice and skill development under low-conditions.
Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) provides new drivers with driving experience and skills gradually over time in many different environments.
What are the three steps of graduated driver licensing?
1. Learners Permit
2. Provisional License
3. Full License
Three stages of license
1. Learners Permit :- Practice basic driving skills under supervision with an adult licensed driver or in a drivers ed program. Learners Permit held for 6 months to a year after completing a drivers education course to gain basic driver skills
2. Intermediate stage (probation or provisional license) :- have normal license and can drive unsupervised but face many restrictions like how many people can be in the car. Allowed to drive unsupervised but with restrictions to reduce the level of risk and distraction.
3. Full license (Unrestricted) :- meet all the requirements of the intermediate stage and obtain a full license after having provisional, happens when 17-18.
Explain how adopting a Parent-Teen Driving Agreement can benefit (a) a teen driver, (b) the family, and (c) the driving population as a whole.
A parent-teen driving agreement is a written agreement between parents and their new driver to outline responsibilities and rules related to the teen's safe driving.
1. Teen drivers- can benefit by becoming aware of what safe driving means and help new driver to avoid misunderstanding about driving/vehicle use
2. Family- can benefit the family by setting goals and expectations that led to safe driving habits and mechanisms
3. Driving population- benefit because the new driver will understand how to drive under certain circumstances and become a safe driver that will decrease/eliminate risks in driving situations
