What else can I help you with?
How much longer does it take to stop in the rain?
It can take up to three times longer to stop a vehicle in wet conditions.
Will a vehicle with worn brakes take longer to stop?
yes
Why does an automatic with ABS take longer to stop when braking?
The wheels do not lock up with abs. This gives you more control to steer the vehicle out of danger but it takes longer to stop.
Why does a moving truck takes a much longer time to stop than that taken by a car when brakes are applied on both?
The reason that it takes a moving truck a much longer time to stop than it takes a car to stop when the brakes are applied on both is because the truck weighs more. The more mass a vehicle has the longer it will take to stop.
When driving at 55 mph how long does it take to come to a complete stop?
Depend on what vehicle you are driving. A large vehicle will take longer to stop than a small sports car. The average car will take about 190 feet which includes reaction time. This will take about 8.5 seconds.
As a vehicle speeds increases the stoping distance?
increases. This is because the faster a vehicle is traveling, the more momentum it has, and therefore the longer distance it will take to come to a complete stop when the brakes are applied.

The reason that it takes a moving truck a much longer time to stop than it takes a car to stop when the brakes are applied on both is because the truck weighs more. The more mass a vehicle has the longer it will take to stop.
Do Trucks take longer to stop than passenger cars?
Trucks take longer to stop than passenger cars.
How do you know when a vehicle comes to complete stop?
When there is no longer any movement.
Does it take longer to stop your vehicle when you are driving faster?
Yes, it takes longer to stop your vehicle when you are driving faster due to the increased momentum and kinetic energy. The stopping distance is affected by factors such as speed, road conditions, and the vehicle's braking system. As speed increases, both the distance required to react and the distance needed to come to a complete stop also increase significantly. This is why maintaining appropriate speeds is crucial for safety.
How do you weigh a vehicle?
take it to a truck stop
When a vehicle's speed triples how much longer will it take to stop?
When a vehicle's speed triples, the stopping distance increases by a factor of nine, assuming the same braking force is applied. This is because stopping distance is proportional to the square of the speed. Therefore, if the speed is tripled, the time it takes to stop will also increase, typically making it significantly longer than at the original speed.
