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.
The kinetic energy of the vehicle when it is travelling faster is four times as great. It the brakes apply the same retardation and the friction from the tires on the road surface is unchanged then the stopping time will be four times as long.
4.6 meters or 15ft. is the estimated stoping distance of a vehicle travelling at 25 MPH. Thinking time and weather or not you are sober have not been taken into account.
At 20 mph, the average thinking distance is around 20 feet, while the braking distance is approximately 20 feet as well. Therefore, the overall stopping distance for a vehicle traveling at 20 mph would be around 40 feet.
The total distance it takes to stop a vehicle traveling at 60 mph depends on several factors, including reaction time and road conditions. On average, a vehicle's stopping distance can be estimated by the formula: stopping distance = reaction distance + braking distance. For a vehicle going 60 mph, the total stopping distance is typically around 180 to 240 feet, which includes approximately 66 feet for reaction time and 114 to 174 feet for braking distance, depending on the braking efficiency and conditions.
The stopping distance of a car traveling at 60 MPH can vary based on factors like road conditions and the vehicle's braking system. On average, the total stopping distance is about 180 feet, which includes the reaction distance (approximately 66 feet) and the braking distance (around 114 feet). This means it takes time for the driver to react and then for the car to come to a complete stop. Always consider safety measures and maintain a safe following distance.
The distance your vehicle travels while stopping, known as the stopping distance, is the sum of the reaction distance and the braking distance. The reaction distance is the distance your vehicle travels from the moment you perceive a hazard until you physically hit the brakes. The braking distance is the distance your vehicle travels once the brakes are applied until the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Factors such as speed, road conditions, and vehicle condition can all affect the overall stopping distance.
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.
Stopping Distance = about 315 feet at 70 mph

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.
