The rule of law is important because it states that all citizens are subject to the law. Monetary status or position doesn't change the law or being subject to it. The constitution limits the military's power because the president is the head of the military. He or she is the one who can declare war. Also, members of the military arts still subject to the law.

The rule of law is the legal principle that law should govern a nation, as opposed to being governed by arbitrary decisions of individual government officials. It primarily refers to the influence and authority of law within society, particularly as a constraint upon behaviour, including behaviour of government officials.
The phrase can be traced back to 16th century Britain, and in the following century the Scottish theologian Samuel Rutherford used the phrase in his argument against the divine right of kings. The rule of law was further popularized in the 19th century by British jurist A. V. Dicey. The concept, if not the phrase, was familiar to ancient philosophers such as Aristotle, who wrote "Law should govern".

Rule of law implies that every citizen is subject to the law, including law makers themselves. In this sense, it stands in contrast to an autocracy, dictatorship, or oligarchy where the rulers are held above the law. Lack of the rule of law can be found in both democracies and dictatorships, for example because of neglect or ignorance of the law, and the rule of law is more apt to decay if a government has insufficient corrective mechanisms for restoring it. Government based upon the rule of law is called nomocracy.

Damm [24]

The correct answer is letter D

Perception is about the process by which real objects, people, situations or events become conscious. It is through perception that the human being knows the world around him in a total and complex way. Perception differs from memory, because it concerns current events and is also different from intelligence and thinking in that it refers to concrete situations.

Perception is more of a concept in psychology that has different considerations, depending on the theoretical approach. It can be understood as the product of various sensory elements linked to experiences that the individual has previously, it can be understood in a very global way, being irreducible to sensations, or it can have such broad characteristics that it is confused with any cognitive process.

miv72 [106K]
I believe the answer is: B. apply the brakes

Applying the brakes wouldn't help you to avoid collision in that situation, but it would definitely help in preventing you from being forced to hit the car in front of you. So by doing this, you minimize the amount of damage that happens in the accident and potentially save other people live.
