What You Need To Know About Reaction Distance
Please take extra care driving in wet weather.
Adapt your driving to the conditions.
Your tyres will have less grip on the road. Keep well back from the vehicle in front – stopping distances will be at least double than dry roads.
Driving at a lower speed will give you more time to react to hazards that aren’t immediately visible through the rain.
Use dipped headlights so that other drivers can see you.
Note But
0 seconds is the point of crashing but any added amount of seconds could get you to your destination. others say 2 seconds, while others say 3 seconds and others say 5 seconds or even more.
The more seconds a driver has to to react to a situation the better it will be especially for easily distracted drivers.
