RULE OF THUMB

The most important rule of thumb, which you need for the theoretical examination, summarized again for you.

Reaktionsweg:

Recognize - decide - react

We humans assume a reaction time of about one second

the reaction path in m
Example:
speed: 80 km/h
reaction time 2 seconds

Bremsweg:

From the start of braking to the standstill of the vehicle.

Braking distance in m
Example:
speed: 40 km/h

Emergency braking:

Stopping distance:

Detect the danger until the vehicle comes to a standstill

Stopping distance in m = reaction distance in m + braking distance in m
Example:
speed: 60 km/h

Stopping distance with emergency braking:

Example:
speed: 60 km/h
