#1. According to the British Columbia Driving Commercial Vehicles Manual, what is a danger zone?

Engine speed above the speed of peak horsepower

A section of road through which your vehicle must travel before it can stop

A section of roadway where conditions are less than ideal

An area around your vehicle that you cannot see directly or in your mirrors

The section of road a vehicle travels through before it can stop is called the vehicle’s danger zone because it’s physically impossible for you to stop the vehicle in time to avoid a collision with any object or person. Reduce your danger zone by slowing down and covering the brake pedal with your foot if you spot a hazard.
