Question

Which of these is a risk of speeding? A. Mechanical failure B. Longer braking distance C. Tire damage D. Greater likelihood of being distracted

Answer 1

The correct answer is B. Longer braking distance

Explanation:

Speeding in driving often involves surpassing the speed limit or being close to it. This action is considered dangerous because it increases the braking distance which implies it takes more time for the vehicle to stop or more time from the moment you use the brakes to the moment the vehicle stop. The main issue with this is a higher risk of accidents because even if the driver is skillful he/she might not be able to stop the car on time if a vehicle, person or any other element suddenly appear on the road. According to this, the risk of speeding is longer braking distance.
