Fear drives action in the sense that a person will respond by "flight or fight". A person in fear will have to choose which response best fits who they are. If they are from an environment where fear is a constant presence then fight will often be their first response. A person who comes from a non-conflict environment will want to preserve that feeling and generally flee from a frightening situation. People are influenced by fear when making decisions based on the situations they have grown up in.
