The vehicle in front may appear (from your obscured point of view) to have stopped to let a pedestrian cross, but the vehicle in front may be masking something more serious, like someone laying injured in the road.

Because the vehicle stays at a steady speed and has less starts and stops (at traffic lights).

The time when the human female stops producing eggs. The menstrual cycle stops.
It stops at about 0.12 seconds.
No. Cuts have to be healed by dividing cells, for instance.
You should probably stop too, in order to avoid rear ending the car in front of you, which could lurch forward and hit the pedestrian, making their injury your fault.

Always give up the "right-of-way" to the pedestrian. Pedestrians ALWAYS have the right-of-way and if you hit them under almost any circumstances it can be found to be your fault. Best to be safe, considerate and let the pedestrian cross, even if they are not in a crosswalk.

You must also stop. Especially if by overtaking you risk running down the pedestrian! One should always drive with consideration to other road user, be they a car that has stopped (you may not be aware why the car has stopped!), pedestrians, cyclists, horse-riders, etc.
Slow down, check side/rear/blind spot to see if the lane beside you is clear, put on your turn signal, merge to the lane away from the stopped emergency vehicle. However, be prepared to come to a full stop if needed or directed by emergency personnel. Do not gawk-- keep your eyes on the road. Looking at accidents is a sure way to cause another accident.
Obviously an unloaded vehicle.
The best way would be to take it to a certified public scale. Most truck stops have scales. Look in the yellow pages or search online for one in your area (They are EVERYWHERE ) and call ahead to check times that they are open to weigh... If it is newer there should be a tag on it that will tell you the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) and it should say on there the UVW (Unloaded Vehicle Weight) this would be the weight of your empty camper or trailer.
