Passing target: 8 correct signs and 24 correct rules (TLA practice targets)
Observation, Speed & SpaceStandalone practice
Which set of conditions is most likely to lengthen stopping distance?
Correct answer: Higher speed, late attention, worn tires and a slick road.
Why
Higher speed requires more stopping distance. Inattention delays your response, and worn tires or slippery pavement can reduce braking grip. Leave room for these factors instead of assuming a familiar dry-road stop will be enough.
