How far can a car traveling at 80 km/h stop during emergency braking?
1 Answers
Emergency braking distance at 80 km/h depends on the vehicle's performance. Here is some extended information about emergency braking: 1. Basic definition: Emergency braking refers to the driver quickly and correctly applying the brakes when encountering an emergency situation while driving, stopping the vehicle in the shortest possible distance. 2. Hazards: Emergency braking causes significant damage to the vehicle and tires, and often due to inconsistent braking between the left and right wheels or differences in adhesion coefficients, it can lead to the car fishtailing, spinning out, losing directional control, or skidding, especially on slippery surfaces, which can damage the machinery or even cause accidents. Therefore, emergency braking should only be used in dangerous situations.
