What is the formula for braking distance?
The minimum distance in which a vehicle can be brought to rest in an emergency from the moment that the driver notices danger ahead. Stopping distances of vehicles can be estimated by using the formula: stopping distance = thinking distance + braking distance The thinking distance is the time taken for the driver to react by applying the brakes of the vehicle. This is known as the reaction time, and is about 0.1-0.3 seconds. As a general rule the breaking distance becomes four times greater as the speed of the car is doubled.

Active means that the car itself will do things to counteract the instability of the vehicle.

At present, it is limited to applying brakes and adjusting the suspension during a bad maneuver to try to stabilize the car.

At what distance should headlights be dimmed to oncoming traffic?
Each US state and Canadian province has its own regulation on dimming distance. However, most states specify that you must use low beams within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle, and within 200 feet of a leading vehicle (travelling your same direction). These distances are quite outdated; they were specified when high beams were allowed to produce only less than half the present allowable maximum intensity, and have not been updated as headlamp regulations and technology have evolved. Technically and physiologically, distances more appropriate to today's North American-market headlamps are 700 feet for oncoming, 300 feet for leading vehicles. Nevertheless, if you adhere to 500/200, you will in most cases be meeting your legal obligation.

How much can a tandem axle utility trailer carry?
The definitive answer is...it depends. Very few trailers are made with axels of 2000lb (or less) capacity. Most are 2500 to 5000 llbs (per axle). So if you have a dual axle trailer with two 3500 lb axles you can haul 7000 lbs MINUS what the trailer weighs. I have a single axle 6X12 with a single 3500 lb axle. The trailer weighs approx 500 lbs, so I would feel relatively safe hauling a 3000 lb load.

Where do you check the brake fluid on a 1985 southwind motorhome?
The 1985 Southwind motor home brake fluid is checked by sliding the master cylinder top retaining clips off the lid to expose the 2 brake fluid holding chambers, the master cylinder is located in the drivers side front hood area high but directly in front of where the brake pedal is located.
Good idea to remove as much of the old as you can before filling it up, brake fluid goes bad as it absorbs moisture out of the atmosphere thus reducing it's boiling point which could cause early brake failure under harsh conditions as well as causes rust inside the system. Roger
