Clear edge markings would make it easier for drivers to see upcoming curves and to judge the car's position on the road, particularly when visibility is poor, and would therefore seem to be a useful contribution to road safety.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain the increase in accident rate?

【选项】In bad weather it can be nearly as difficult for drivers to see the road as it is at night.
