True or False: Drivers must be aware that children have a minimal perception of car speeds and distances.

The statement is true because children, due to their developmental stage, often have difficulty accurately judging the speed and distance of moving vehicles. This limited perception can lead to dangerous situations, as children may not recognize the urgency of a vehicle approaching or understand how quickly it is traveling. Therefore, drivers must exercise heightened caution around children, especially in places where they congregate, such as neighborhoods, playgrounds, and school zones. Being aware of this limitation in children's perception can help drivers anticipate unexpected actions, such as a child running into the street or not waiting for a vehicle to pass.
