Operation & SafetyCâu 58 / 60
To make sure you can stop in time, how should you adjust following distance with air brakes at higher speeds?
a.Reduce following distance to save time
b.Keep the same distance as a passenger car
c.Follow closely to draft the vehicle ahead
d.Increase following distance because stopping takes longer at higher speeds and heavier weights
Giải thích
Because heavy vehicles need much more distance to stop, and brake lag adds even more, you should increase your following distance. The faster you go and the heavier you are, the more room you need. Leaving extra space gives you time to react and stop safely.
