Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

The correct options are
A Drivers will not be able to see potholes during heavy rains.
B Illegal speed breakers are also a major contributor to road accidents.
C Damaged and eroded roads lead to accidents as they cause vehicles to lose control.

Fogs, windstorms, and snow are some weather conditions that lead to road accidents. These are not related to physical conditions of the road. Some major road condition threats to driving are potholes, eroded or damaged roads. Some accidents happen because of illegal speed breakers that are not put up by the road maintaining authorities.
