How can I avoid repetetion?
Hi,
How can I avoid the second "2 seconds" in the below sentence?
What other corrections are needed?
"Each light was kept switched on for 2 seconds maximum (within this time, the driver should press the switch to turn off the light). If the the driver fails to respond, the light would turn off after 2 seconds. The driver's failure to respond was recorded as a missed response.
Thanks!
