34
Q

what are the 5 keys to smith safe driving system

A
  1. aim high with steering
  2. get the big picture
  3. keep your eyes moving
  4. leave yourself a way out
  5. make sure they see you
35
Q

4 factors in total stopping distance

A
  1. perception time
  2. decision/reaction time
  3. air brake lag
  4. braking distance
36
Q

stopping distance formula

A

3/4 second= perception time
3/4 second= decision/reaction time
1/4-1 second= air brake lag time
150-200 feet= braking distance

time lapsed from noticing need to stop until brakes take effect= 1 3/4- 2 1/2 seconds

37
Q

formula for travel distance at speed

A

add 1st digit of speedometer to actual speed of vehicle to calculate feet per 3/4 seconds

38
Q

what is the destructive force as vehicle speed doubles

A

4 times the destructive power in crash

39
Q

4 factors that effect total stopping distance

A

driver influence
vehicle influence
vehicle weight
driving conditions

40
Q

what is the 4 second rule

A
  1. always maintain 4 second following distance
  2. at speeds above 40mph, add 1 second for every 10mph
  3. when traveling code 3, add 1 second to following distance.
41
Q

above/below 40mph rule

A

below 40mph give 1 second per foot of vehicle length

above 40mph add 1 second for safety

42
Q

Smith safe driving method

A

ID hazard
predict action of hazard
decide how to avoid hazard
execute your decision
