VEHICLE STOPPING DISTANCES
INTRODUCTION
This table contains information on stopping distances as required by the
Consumer Information Regulations issued by the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration of the United States Department of Transportation, As permitted by the regulation, data for various models with differing options and
accessories are grouped in a single table, Since the regulations require that
the least favorable figures for any specific model in the group be
reported for the entire group, the actual performance of most vehicles in
the group will be better than the figures reported.
Data for stopping distances is derived from tests conducted with new
vehicles
under optimum road conditions by highly skilled test drivers and are not necessarily representative data for a used vehicle, for many road conditions. or for the abilities of most drivers.
