Stopping distances
Thinking Distance
Braking Distance
It takes time for a driver to react
to a situation. During this time
the car carries on moving.
The thinking distance is the distance travelled between the
driver realising he needs to brake and actually braking.
The braking distance is the distance taken to
stop once the brakes are applied.
Methods used to measure it
Click reaction
Reaction Time ruler
Stick timers
Light board reaction time
The more the person practises the quicker
it will react and get a better score.
Equipment: Stopwatch, ruler, partner, chair.
Method: A person will be holding the
ruler with the tip of their fingers on the
top of a chair and the other person will
be timed on how fast he reacts to
catch it.
