What is the stopping distance at 60 mph?
Virtually all current production vehicles’ published road braking performance tests indicate stopping distances from 60 mph that are typically 120 to 140 feet, slightly less than half of the projected safety distances.
How long does it take to hit the brakes?
Since there is a 1 second delay (driver reaction time) in hitting your brakes (both recognition and reaction time is often 2 seconds), the total time to stop is 5.4 seconds to 6.4 seconds.
Is it possible to get a better braking distance?
It is very possible and probable that with some effort, the driver that attempts to be aware of braking safety procedures and practices can and should get much better braking (safely) than the guidelines used nationally, approaching that of the professionally driver published performance tests.
What’s the average stopping distance for a car?
In this case, this works out to be .5 * 88 * 4.4 = 193.6 feet, plus a reaction time of either 88 feet for a second delay in reaction time, or 176 feet for two seconds reaction time. That yields 281.6 feet or 369.6 when added to the base stopping distance of 193.6 feet.
Is there a way to remove the 100 mph speed limit?
Click to expand… If u want us to go slow pay for my truck, gas, insurance, everything. Otherwise who cares what think or what pisses u off. Well, your off to a good start, first post and your telling a long time member to keep his opinions to himself.
How long could you drive the car continuously?
It was 1,500 miles there and 1,500 miles back with no stops in between except for fuel and food. Agree with Whitey; highway miles are easy on the car, and only the driver’s endurance wlimits how far you can drive.

How many feet per second can you decelerate a vehicle?
As an example, if a street surface is dry, the average driver can safely decelerate an automobile or light truck with reasonably good tires at the rate of about 15 feet per second (fps). That is, a driver can slow down at this rate without anticipated probability that control of the vehicle will be lost in the process.
How is the distance traveled in a car calculated?
Distance traveled now is calculated to be 121 feet, which is for all practical purposed, the published performance figures, excluding reaction times. The intelligent driver will error on the safe side and leave room for reaction time and less than perfect conditions. That driver will also hone the braking skills to give more of a margin of safety.
What’s the first stop on the 17 Mile Drive?
Continue to 3 of 12 below. It’s called Spanish Bay to honor explorer Don Gaspar de Portola, who camped here with his ship’s crew in 1769 while exploring the coastline and trying to find the Monterey Bay. Spanish Bay is the first stop that many visitors make along the 17-Mile Drive, with a big parking lot and a pretty beach.
What’s the difference between crashing at 70 mph and 85 mph?
To explore the difference between crashing a car at 70 mph and 85 mph, I will use a model. This car doesn’t have a crumple zone, it has a huge spring on the front.
Can a car crash into a wall at 70 mph?
Don’t crash your car into a wall if you are going 70 mph even if the car has a huge spring on it. UPDATE: I was wrong (as pointed out in the comments). The table above says that the time is in minutes, not seconds. Dooh! Anyway, looking again at Wikipedia’s human tolerance page – it lists 50 g’s as pretty much fatal.
Which is the best car to drive 400, 000 miles?
With basic maintenance, a Miata should easily cross 400,000 miles, and even pass 900,000 miles if you’re dedicated enough to drive it for that long. The Toyota Camry should be an obvious choice when it comes to the most reliable cars of all time, it’s not uncommon to see extremely high mileage examples from decades ago still running faithfully.
Why does the steering wheel shake at 70 mph?
Vibration through the steering wheel due to sticky brake calipers and rotors become noticeable starting at 45 to 50 mph. The shaking gets worse the further you close into 70 mph, accompanied by a burning odor when you stop your vehicle. Wheel shaking caused by an issue with the front brakes will be more noticeable when braking.
What is the FPS of a 60 mph vehicle?
If the initial velocity is 60 mph, 88 fps, after 1 second elapsed, the vehicle velocity would be 73 fps, after 2 seconds it would be 58 fps decreasing progressively thereafter.
What should I do if my car shakes at 70 mph?
Depending on your car’s make and model, it may require a four-wheel or a front-wheel alignment (inclusive of setting the camber, toe, and caster). A professional mechanic will be able to align your wheels using a wheel alignment machine. 3. Uneven Tire Wear
What’s the top speed of a Kawasaki Vulcan?
This might be because of the great handling and the power of the engine. The Kawasaki Vulcan S model has a steady crop of Kawasaki cruiser fans. It puts out a maximum of 6600 RPM at 63Nm, and all that power comes to a smooth stop with an improved braking system. Most owners of the new Vulcan S model from Kawasaki brag about its stopping power.
What’s the top speed of a Kawasaki Ninja 300?
Kawasaki Ninja 300 Acceleration Speed Time SS/QM 12.98/102 mph SS/KM 25.12/114 mph SS/Mile 36.73/115 mph Top Speed 116.7 mph
What’s the top speed of a Kawasaki 400?
Top speed is actually achieved in 5th, at a smudge under the redline. Hooking 6th does not change anything, as the 400 can’t really pull 6th to the redline at 129.8 mph and (209 km/h)
What’s the average speed of a Kawasaki MULE?
I’ve drove mine for about 20 minutes at a time in the 40 mph range. Basically from the house to where I hunt and I ended up cooking a belt. Had to replace it.
What makes encounters stop on the Neutral route?
On the Neutral and True Pacifist Routes, sparing Papyrus, Undyne, Mettaton EX, and Asriel Dreemurr causes the encounters in Snowdin, Waterfall, Hotland, and Ruins, respectively, to stop, whereas during the Genocide Route encounters only stop occurring after killing Mettaton NEO.
How is Asgore killed in the Neutral route?
In all of the neutral route endings, Alphys says that the protagonist must kill Asgore and take his SOUL because a human SOUL alone cannot pass through the barrier. Consistent across all Neutral Route epilogues: Asgore is killed (by the protagonist or Flowey) Flowey is defeated. The six human SOULs are lost.
Who is the final boss in the Neutral route?
In this route, the final boss is Photoshop Flowey, though after fighting him once (without performing a True Reset or a Genocide Route ), Flowey only destroys Asgore ‘s SOUL and his fight is skipped, as he knows the SOULs would revolt again.
