Presentation Transcript

  1. Research Task“Driving Safely”

  2. Question 1 • Find definitions • What is the formula for Stopping Distance?

  3. Question 2 • Find out the factors from: • Textbook • Notes • Revision guide

  4. Question 3 • Draw a graph or a table of the data • Find out what the data is based on: • Check the Highway Code • Braking? • Weather? • Road surface?

  5. Question 3b • Calculate Stopping Distance for 80mph • Show how you did it

  6. Question 4 • Changes to car design to minimise pedestrian injuries: • Bull bars • Soft bumpers • Lorry under-bars • Headlight design • Pop-up bonnets • Banning bonnet mascots

  7. Question 5a • Crash barriers and road surface: • Improvements to crash barriers • Cambering on roads • Road surface • Drainage • Materials

  8. Question 5b • Other road safety improvements: • Lines • Cats eyes • Rumble strips • Energy absorbing road signs • Removing junctions egHaughley Bends • Removing “clutter” – Dutch experiment • Adding energy absorbing run-off areas
