developed cognitive and psychological function of the driver, which allows you to effectively drive a vehicle and make reasoned, preventive decisions when driving in densely populated cities characterized by relatively chaotic traffic flow, irregular traffic light system, high density of cars, pedestrians and cyclists, as well as the appearance of sudden obstacles. This capability reflects a high level of defensive driving and spatio-temporal attention, the ability to quickly process multiple and changing information in real time, realistic risk assessment, and control over action when making decisions in heavy traffic and complex environments. In the psychology of road behavior, the development of this function is one of the most important elements of safe driving, since it allows the driver to predict the behavior of other vehicles and pedestrians, adapt to sudden changes and ensure the safety of himself and other road users. This function is also related to the skills of sustained concentration, managing emotions in stressful situations, planning a route in real time and dynamically applying preventive solutions in unstructured and complex road conditions.
