For every 2 miles driven, how many mistakes does the average driver make?

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Answer: (A)

Mistakes happen often while driving, and this item uses a rough rule about how often errors occur on the road. If the average driver makes one mistake for every two miles, then over a two-mile stretch you’d expect about one error. That’s why the correct choice is the one that says one mistake per two miles.

This idea isn’t about perfection; it’s a reminder to drive defensively because errors are common. Keep extra space, scan ahead, and stay focused so you’re prepared for the occasional slip by yourself or others. If you thought there were more mistakes per two miles, that would exceed the stated average; fewer would be less than what the statistic implies.
