To help manage sun glare, what does the manual say to avoid?
-
A.
Driving at midnight and midday.
-
B.
Driving during sunrise and sunset. Correct
-
C.
Driving during peak rush hour periods.
The answer is "Driving during sunrise and sunset."
The sun-glare section names sunrise and sunset as the times to avoid driving. A applies a general 'avoid the busy hours' instinct to a paragraph whose cue is actually the sun's angle, not how heavy traffic is.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Driving at midnight and midday.
Midnight and midday are not the glare hours the manual names. This answer guesses time-of-day categories at random rather than recalling the low-sun-angle rule.
C. Driving during peak rush hour periods.
The manual's sun-glare rule is tied to sun angle, not to how heavy traffic is. This answer applies a general 'avoid the busy hours' instinct to a section that is actually about the horizon.
