The correct answer is A) visual overload.

<em>While driving in the city, the busy urban environment can induce visual overload.</em>

When you are driving your car, one of your senses probably experiences over-stimulation from the environment. That is called sensory overload. Among the elements that cause this visual overload are advertising signs, urbanization, the noise, and people on the streets. That is why it is very important to focus on driving, and do not allow or minimize distractions.

The other options of the question were B) mental focus, C) road racing, and D) signage.

The answer is sensory overload. While driving in the city, the busy urban environment can induce sensory overload.

 

EXPLANATION

Sensory overload is a term where you experience a lot of stimulation through five of your senses and your brain can’t process and sort through it all. For example, there are a few people that are talking to you at the same time, flashing lights with a lot of different colors, or a loud event where all of your senses are stimulated. These kinds of situations can induce sensory overload.

 

Sensory overload can be experienced by everyone, but the triggers for each person is different. Sensory overload can also be associated with some mental disorders. People with autism, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), sensory processing disorder, and fibromyalgia are most likely to experience sensory overload.

 

• Symptoms of sensory overload

Symptoms of sensory overload can be different. It needs to be analyzed case by case. Some common symptoms of sensory overload are extreme irritability, urge to cover your senses from sensory input, difficulty focusing due to sensory input, feeling stress, fear, restlessness, discomfort, and anxiety. People with sensory overload tend to have higher levels of sensitivity for fabrics, textures, and anything that rubs against the skin.

 

• Causes of sensory overload

In the normal functioning, the brain receives sensory input from your surrounding and interprets the input by telling you how to react. But since there’s a lot of sensory inputs surrounding you, your brain gets confused and can’t interpret all of the sensory inputs surrounding you. Your brain can’t prioritize which sensory input needs to be interpreted first.

 

Your brain tells you to get away from all the sensory inputs before it gets more panic. The brain needs to process the sensory input one by one so it can interpret the input well.
