Which distances combine to form total stopping distance?
Correct answer: Perception, reaction, and braking distance.
Why
A driver first perceives a hazard, then reacts, and finally needs braking distance; higher speed expands the total. For an ordinary planned stop, check mirrors and blind spots for traffic behind. Release the accelerator, then press the brake pedal to show your brake lights and slow with steady pressure.
