At 50 km/h, 40m distance helps prevent rear-end collisions.

Higher speed increases stopping distance; maintain more gap to react safely.

At 80 km/h, braking distance increases sharply; larger clearance is essential to avoid collisions.

At highway speeds, a truck needs 130m to stop safely; tailgating is extremely dangerous.

At 120 km/h, trucks require 180m clearance; safe distance is critical to avoid fatal crashes.

Even 1 second delay increases travel distance; faster speeds require more buffer space.

Backlash distance is the ground covered before braking starts; higher speeds make it longer.

Braking distance depends on speed, load, and road surface conditions.

At higher speeds, braking distance increases exponentially, not linearly.

Wet roads increase braking time; trucks should extend gap more than dry-surface stopping distance.

Trucks need long gaps to stop; maintaining 130m helps avoid high-speed collisions.

Even at 50 km/h, sudden stops require about 40m to avoid crashes.

Extra weight increases stopping distance beyond chart values; gaps must be extended further.

Even without load, stopping distance remains long due to truck size and brake delay.

Tired drivers have slower reactions, increasing reaction distance dangerously.

In traffic, reducing speed shortens stopping distance, improving safety.

Gravity increases braking distance on slopes; larger gap prevents runaway accidents.

Tailgating removes necessary stopping space, making collisions unavoidable in sudden stops.

In fog or darkness, increase distance beyond chart to allow for reduced reaction time.
