What is the stopping distance for a vehicle moving at 60mph?

  1. 240 ft

  2. 200 ft

  3. 180 ft

  4. 220 ft

The correct answer is: 240 ft

The stopping distance for a vehicle is influenced by several factors, such as the speed of the vehicle, the condition of the road, and the reaction time of the driver. At a speed of 60 miles per hour, a vehicle will travel 240 feet in just one second. This means that it will take 240 feet for the vehicle to come to a complete stop. Option B, C, and D are all lower than the actual stopping distance of 240 feet, making them incorrect options. It's important for drivers to remember the importance of maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles and to adjust their speed according to road conditions to avoid accidents and ensure a safe stop.
