1. Stopping distance is the distance traveled from the moment a driver first registers danger, to when the vehicle comes to rest. Describe significant factors which can affect your overall stopping distance and how this can be reduced.
Two components which directly affects overall stopping distance is: Reaction time and braking distance, both can be reduced to see a decline in stopping distance.
Reaction time
Reaction time is when the driver becomes aware of a hazardous …showed first 75 words of 2517 total…
