Key Stage 4

Meaning

Stopping distance is the distance a vehicle travels between the driver noticing a hazard and coming to a stop.

About Stopping Distance

Stopping distance is made of two parts:

  • Thinking Distance - The distance travelled by the vehicle between noticing a hazard and putting the foot on the brakes.
  • Braking Distance - The distance travelled once the vehicle has applied the brakes.

Stopping Distance = Thinking Distance + Braking Distance

Stopping distance depends on:
