Why should a tractor be driven more slowly on uneven road surfaces?

  1. To avoid severe bouncing.
  2. To avoid fuel spilling from the tank.
  3. To reduce road noise.
  4. To maintain tyre pressure.

Correct Answer

To avoid severe bouncing.

Explanation: Drivers should drive more slowly on an uneven road surface because driving a tractor at speed could cause the vehicle or the trailer to become unstable and difficult to control. During severe bouncing the tractor's wheels can lose contact with the road; negatively affecting steering and braking.
