What is the braking distance at 70mph?

  1. 220 ft

  2. 245 ft

  3. 275 ft

  4. 300 ft

The correct answer is: 245 ft

Braking distance is the distance it takes for a vehicle to come to a complete stop after the brake pedal is pressed. This distance is affected by various factors such as the speed of the vehicle, road conditions, and the efficiency of the brakes. In this question, 70mph is a high speed and requires a longer braking distance than lower speeds. So, options A, C, and D can be eliminated as they are shorter distances and would not be the correct answer. This leaves us with option B, 245 ft, which is the closest to the actual braking distance at 70mph and therefore the correct answer.
