In order to do that, you need to make sure you keep your focus on the road. The reaction time is the amount of time it actually takes before you notice what is going on and work to stop it. The braking distance is solely the distance from the car and when you can brake, in my own terms. It's an easy topic to understand if you think of it from a positive, yet intrigued viewpoint.
