The shortest distance a vehicle can safely stop in. 1 of 6 What does the stopping distance depend on? The thinking and braking distance. 2 of 6 What is the equation for stopping distance? Stopping distance= thinking distance + braking distance 3 of 6 What affect does speed have on the stopping distance? The faster a car travels, the longer the stopping distance because it means the thinking is longer. 4 of 6 What factors affect stopping distance? Tiredness, alcohol, drugs, distractions 5 of 6 What do these factors do to the stopping distance? They all increase the time needed to think to brake. This then means the stopping distance is greater. 6 of 6
