Which distance is not included in the stopping sight distance?

[MaxAnn]

Stopping sight distance does not include the starting distance. The relevant introduction to stopping sight distance is as follows: Introduction one: Stopping sight distance refers to the shortest driving distance required when a vehicle encounters an obstacle ahead on the same lane and must apply braking to stop. Stopping sight distance can be broken down into three parts for study: reaction distance, braking distance, and safety distance. Introduction two: Stopping sight distance consists of three parts: the distance traveled during the driver's reaction time, the distance traveled from the start of braking until the vehicle comes to a complete stop, plus the safety distance. The minimum safety distance that should be maintained between the completely stopped vehicle and the obstacle is generally 5 to 10 meters. Due to its small value, it is already considered in the reaction distance during calculation and is not accounted for separately.
