True or False: You are less likely to get into a fatal accident at night because there are fewer drivers on the road.

The statement is false because, despite there being fewer vehicles on the road at night, the risk of fatal accidents tends to be higher. Nighttime driving presents unique challenges such as decreased visibility, increased fatigue among drivers, and a higher likelihood of encountering impaired drivers. These factors contribute significantly to the elevated risk of accidents during nighttime hours. Therefore, it is important for drivers to exercise heightened caution and awareness when driving after dark, as the possibility of serious accidents increases, notwithstanding the lower volume of traffic.
