Question

snow, ice, and leaves could cause you to:

lose traction on the road

stop more quickly

make better turns

have a good time spinning out

Explanation:

Analyze the effect of road hazards

Snow, ice, and wet leaves create a slippery layer on the pavement, which significantly reduces the friction between the vehicle's tires and the road surface.

Evaluate the given options

• "lose traction on the road": Correct, as reduced friction directly causes a loss of traction.
• "stop more quickly": Incorrect, reduced traction increases stopping distance.
• "make better turns": Incorrect, steering requires traction, which is compromised by these hazards.
• "have a good time spinning out": Incorrect, spinning out is a dangerous loss of control, not a safe or intended driving outcome.

Answer:

• lose traction on the road (Correct answer)
• stop more quickly
• make better turns
• have a good time spinning out
