An impatient driver approaches an intersection controlled by a two- way stop sign. The through traffic is quite heavy, with an average gap of 5 sec. If this driver can achieve an acceleration of du/dt = (1-02u) m/sec? and his perception-reaction time is 0.75 sec, determine if he can safely clear the intersection. Assume that the width of the intersection is 6 m, and his car is 5 m long. %!
