1. The distance travelled by a vehicle during perception-reaction time is 55.56m. If this vehicle is travelling on a 4% downhill road section with a design speed of 80 kph and a coefficient of friction with the tires of 0.35, what would be the braking distance required if the available stopping sight distance is 136.74m.?
