GetMyMockTestQuestion side
1
Two-second rule at 72 km/h: gap in metres
40 m (72 km/h = 20 m/s).
2
Convert km/h to m/s
Divide by 3.6.
3
Distance in 1 s at 90 km/h
25 m.
4
Distance in 1 s at 108 km/h
30 m.
5
Distance in 1 s at 54 km/h
15 m.
6
Distance in 1 s at 36 km/h
10 m.
7
Thinking distance formula
Speed in m/s x reaction time in seconds.
8
Braking distance formula (constant deceleration)
v squared / (2a), with v in m/s.
9
Doubling speed multiplies braking distance by
4.
10
Tripling speed multiplies braking distance by
9.
11
Halving speed divides braking distance by
4.
12
Wet road: braking distance compared with dry
At least about double.
13
Stopping distance =
Thinking distance + braking distance.
14
Time for 60 km at 90 km/h
40 minutes.
15
Time for 120 km at 80 km/h
90 minutes.
16
Relative speed when you overtake at 80 km/h a vehicle doing 60 km/h
20 km/h.
17
Safe speed in fog
One at which you can stop within the distance you can see.
18
What is aquaplaning and the response
Tyres ride on water; ease off, keep steering straight, do not brake hard.
19
Where overtaking is unsafe
Bends, crests, junctions and near crossings.
20
First actions at a crash scene
Make the scene safe, warn traffic, call 112.
21
Injured motorcyclist's helmet
Leave it on unless breathing is blocked.
22
Burn first aid
Cool with running water for at least ten minutes.
23
Chest compression position for CPR
Centre of the chest, on the breastbone.
24
Fatigue warning signs
Yawning, heavy eyes, drifting in lane; stop and rest.
25
Rear fog lights are for
Seriously reduced visibility only.
26
Hazard warning lights are for
Warning others of a temporary danger.
27
Level crossing red lights flashing
Stop and wait.
28
Car stalls on level crossing
Get everyone out and clear of the track, then call for help.
