Speed And StoppingStandalone practice
What is reaction distance?
Correct answer: The distance travelled while the driver responds and moves to brake
Why
During reaction time, you move your foot from the accelerator to the brake while the vehicle continues travelling. That travel is reaction distance; braking distance starts when the brakes are applied.
