- Speed: The faster you are going, the longer it will take to stop.
- Road conditions: Wet, icy, or snowy roads can increase braking distance.
- Tire condition: Worn or underinflated tires can reduce traction and increase braking distance.
- Vehicle weight: Heavier vehicles take longer to stop than lighter ones.
- Brake condition: Worn or damaged brakes can reduce braking effectiveness.
- Driver reaction time: The time it takes you to react to a hazard can affect braking distance.
- ABS (Anti-lock braking system): Vehicles equipped with ABS can stop more quickly and effectively on slippery surfaces by preventing the wheels from locking up.
