Transportation Tuesday TRANSPORTATION TUESDAY DRIVE AT THE RIGHT SPEED FOR THE CONDITIONS HIGHWAY, TOWN, RESIDENTIAL THIS IS A LIMIT NOT A TARGET 120 KPH 50 KPH

Transportation Tuesday IF A CHILD RUNS OUT SUDDENLY where would you stop? AT 48 KPH (30 mph) (usual residental speed limit) You could have stopped in front of the first child.

Transportation Tuesday AT 56 KPH (35 mph) You would not only hit the first child, you would still be doing more than 20 kph when you hit the second child. Driving 8 kph faster means it takes the average car a total of 29m (96 feet) to stop. Less than 50 kph might feel slow … but only until someone steps out in front of you.

Transportation Tuesday It doesn’t matter how good a driver you are. The faster you go, the longer it takes you to stop.
