Explanation

For answer  A 

The question refers to the main factors, meaning the most present factors, those that form the basis of defensive driving. Therefore, the positive attitude in traffic, calmness, the knowledge acquired and politeness are the main factors that help a driver to drive preventively.


For answer  B 

The skill and the ability to impose the physical qualities acquired are NOT main factors of preventive conduct.


For answer  C 

The road signalling means and the traffic police officers are NOT main factors of preventive conduct.


Therefore, among the three answer choices, the one that represents the basis of preventive conduct is: “the positive attitude in traffic, calmness, the knowledge acquired and politeness”.


Defensive driving (preventive conduct) - represents the behaviour of the driver characterised by the following essential traits:

  • anticipation of situations that can become dangerous (anticipating the mistakes of traffic participants), which involves knowing and recognising the particularities of the other participants thoroughly and soundly;
  • avoiding accidents that are about to occur or avoiding engaging in accidents that have taken place;
  • choosing the best option to get out with minimum consequences from an accident that could not be avoided or correcting a wrong decision that reduces the consequences of an accident;
  • adapting the way of travelling to road conditions, traffic and unfavourable weather conditions.

In conclusion, preventive conduct means the road behaviour that ensures the prevention of accidents, through anticipating and avoiding the incorrect actions of road partners, as well as adapting the travelling speed to the specific weather-road conditions. Preventive conduct ensures safety and smooth traffic on public roads.

The elements of defensive driving:

  1. theoretical and practical knowledge;
  2. vigilance;
  3. foresight;
  4. judgment;
  5. skill;
  6. reaction time.

The correct answer is: A
