Which statement is false according to the material?

Emotional state matters for safe driving. When you’re angry, stressed, tired, or upset, your attention can narrow, judgment can falter, and your reaction time can slow. That makes it harder to notice hazards, assess situations, and respond quickly and safely. So saying your ability to drive safely has nothing to do with how you feel eliminates an important factor in staying safe on the road, and that’s why the statement is false. For context, the material also notes practical safety points: a first-offense DUI can lead to a license suspension (often six months in many cases), and ESC systems help keep the vehicle on track by assisting with steering and braking when stability is challenged.
