Which of the following is a hazard as opposed to a peril?
o Fire
o Lightning
o Wet pavement
o Flood
Correct Answer
A. Wet pavement
Explanation
Wet pavement is considered a hazard rather than a peril because it poses a risk or
danger to individuals. Hazards are conditions or situations that can cause harm, while
perils are events or causes of loss. In this case, wet pavement increases the likelihood
of accidents or slips, making it a hazard. Fire, lightning, and flood are all perils as they
are specific events or causes of damage or loss.
