Sentences with phrase «increase braking distance»

So assuming the same tires, and brakes that can hold the tires at that maximum static force, I don't see why mass would increase braking distance.
This in turn leads to increased braking distances and a higher risk of aquaplaning.

Not exact matches

Subaru has determined that certain 2012 Legacy / Outback and Impreza (except WRX and STI) vehicles may be equipped with a brake master cylinder that could malfunction and cause an increase in the amount of brake pedal travel distance required to slow or stop the vehicle.
However, on loose gravel and snow, anti-lock brakes can increase stopping distance, though the improved vehicle control remains the same.

Conequence: If the vehicle experiences a brake fluid leak it can increase the stopping distance, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Under heavy braking, the box shifts down two gears to increase engine braking and shorten stopping distances.
The GT3 FL2 car gained new 24 hour racing brakes to improve long - distance performance, but also increased engine cooling together with a reduction in fuel consumption.
Conequence: LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID CAN LEAD TO A DECREASE IN BRAKE LINE PRESSURE AND AN INCREASE IN STOPPING DISTANCE, WHICH CAN RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
Other standard safety features on the vehicle include traction control to maximize tire grip with the road, electronic vehicle stability and roll mitigation for maintaining the intended driving path even during sudden maneuvers, high - beam daytime running lights to increase conspicuity, trailer sway damping for greater control of whatever you are pulling behind you, four - wheel disc brakes for shortening stopping distance, and an anti-lock braking system for preventing the wheels from locking up during hard stops.
The result is increased stability when braking, which helps reduce stopping distance.
ABS works with a vehicle's normal service brakes to decrease stopping distance and increase the control and stability of the vehicle during hard braking.
The vehicles also include Brake Assist, which notifies the active brake booster electronically of the need for increased brake output, helping to provide shorter stopping distances in emergency situations.
Brake Assist PLUSallows controlled, targeted braking and, if necessary, increases the braking force right up to the point at which an emergency stop is performed, depending on the road speed and the distance to the vehicle in front.
Other new tech includes stop - start technology; and a redesigned brake system that shortens stopping distance and improves pedal feel while increasing rotor and lining life.
We never ran out of brakes, mind you, but an increasingly long pedal saw the distance between the corner and throwing the picks increase as the morning laps went on.
Conequence: A delay in the application of the brake pedal would lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle and increase the risk of a crash.
At that point, the brake system modulator pump increases braking pressure while the pedal is still being pressed to ensure maximum stopping force, an action that can help shorten braking distance.
Its position varies to optimise efficiency, increase downforce on the rear axle and, in the airbrake position, shorten the braking distance.
At that point, the VSA modulator pump increases braking pressure while the pedal is still being pressed to ensure maximum stopping force, an action that can help shorten braking distance.
Electronically actuated, it is programmed to work at braking speeds above 155 mph and is claimed to reduce stopping distances by up 39 feet by allowing the braking system to allocate more braking power to the rear axle due to the increased downforce it generates.
The Hydraulic Brake Assistance system increases brake circuit pressure under emergency braking situations to shorten stopping distances.
It increases downforce on the rear axle and even serves as an airbrake to shorten the braking distance from higher speeds.
The increased speed gives the driver no time to react to emergencies and increases the distance necessary to brake.
Once temperatures dip below 7º C, all - season tires lose their grip and braking distances increase.
