What consequence does a slower reaction time have on stopping distance?
En español: Un tiempo de reacción más lento, ¿qué consecuencia tiene sobre la distancia de detención?
A
It shortens the stopping distance
B
It lengthens the stopping distance
Correct answer
C
It has no consequence
D
It automatically reduces the vehicle's speed
Why this is the correct answer
A slower reaction time lengthens the distance covered before braking begins, so the total stopping distance is greater and the risk of an accident increases.
