On the A35 you read on an instruction card: 'At 50 km/h the stopping distance is exactly equal to the braking distance: 12.50 m.'
- True
- ✓ False
Correct answer: False
Explanation
False
Why learners get this wrong
- Stopping distance at 50 km/h = 13.75 (reaction distance) + 12.50 (braking distance) = 26.25 m, not 12.50 m
