Section B
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow. Road accidents are a growing concern in Tanzania, claiming numerous lives annually. Factors contributing to accidents include reckless driving, poor road conditions, and inadequate enforcement of traffic laws. Many drivers, particularly of public transport like Daladala, engage in speeding and overloading to maximize profits, endangering passengers.
