| 11. | Such a situation could be dangerous, as stopping distance increases with fewer functioning brakes.
|
| 12. | That's 21 times more stopping distance in the soft sand.
|
| 13. | Stops are straight, but the stopping distances are not impressive.
|
| 14. | So the shortest stopping distance may really be the quickest route to a collision.
|
| 15. | Thanks to powerful anti-lock disc brakes, stopping distance from 60 mph is 121 feet.
|
| 16. | The braking distance is one of two principal components of the total stopping distance.
|
| 17. | The car not only placed last, but had considerably longer stopping distances than other vehicles.
|
| 18. | The vacuum booster was invented in 1927 in order to provide a shorter stopping distance.
|
| 19. | And those calculations were produced with estimates of stopping distances provided by the Transit Authority.
|
| 20. | You need at least two seconds of stopping distance between you and the vehicle ahead.
