That depends on 4 factors - size of vehicle you're driving, what you're towing/hauling, the road conditions, and if the vehicle is equipped with ABS or not.

What is the stopping distance at 55mph?

That depends on what vehicle you are stopping from 55 mph. the laws of physics come into play. The heavier the vehicle the longer the stopping distance. So I cannot give an accurate answer except to say that from 60 mph the average for a mid-sized car is around 135 feet.

When traveling 30-mph, the braking distance is 45-feet, and the total stopping distance is 75-feet. This is the length of a semi-truck and trailer.


At 55 mph a vehicle will need at least how many feet to stop?

Any regular passenger vehicle traveling at a speed of 20 mph should stop within a distance of 25 feet, once the brake is applied. At 35 mph, the distance will be approximately 106 feet. At 55 mph, it will be approximately 228 feet. An increase speed will always result in longer stopping distances. In addition, factors such as road and weather conditions and traffic density also affect the vehicle's stopping distance. -Mary Mimms


Studies have shown that a tractor-trailer truck traveling at 55 mph will typically need the stopping distance of an automobile traveling at the same speed?

Yes it will need the stopping distance of a automobile traveling at the same speed and then it will need a few hundred more feet as well.
