Answer:

If you drive fast, you'll have an accident.

You'll have an accident if you drive fast.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two sentences have similar meanings, but the structure and word order are slightly different.

In the first sentence, "If you drive fast" is a conditional clause that sets up a condition (fast driving) and is followed by the consequence, "you'll have an accident."

In the second sentence, "You drive an accident" is rephrased to "You'll have an accident," which directly conveys the consequence of fast driving. The conditional part "if you drive fast" is moved to the end of the sentence.

So, both sentences convey the idea that driving fast leads to an accident, but they rearrange the words and clauses to achieve this similar meaning.
