Braking distance (the distance a vehicle travels while brakes are applied) is most directly reduced by
When a car approaches a hazard and the driver reacts immediately, the thinking distance depends on
Which change to a car will reduce its braking distance on a dry road?
If wet conditions double stopping distance compared with dry conditions at the same speed, then at the same speed the braking distance component is
How does increasing the braking force (for example by applying more pressure to the brake pedal) affect braking distance assuming tyres don’t slip?
Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS) affect stopping distance by

A car travelling at higher speed has a longer braking distance mainly because
If a car’s speed doubles, which statement about its braking distance is correct (assuming same conditions)?
