Part of braking is how quickly you can react to an emergency.
Try this fun reaction time test.

Re: Brakes and Reaction Time
 

Scored pretty well. It said it wasn't sure I was an actual human!

Re: Brakes and Reaction Time
 

Probably should put your keyboard on the floor and do the test with your foot.

Re: Brakes and Reaction Time
 

good point haha then factor in the delay of foot pressing brake then brakes actually doing something.

Then have a beer or twelve and see what happens haha.:rolleyes:

Re: Brakes and Reaction Time
 

I tried it 4 times in a row when I got the email, and got better with each try. On the last try I also got the comment about being human. 606, 387, 332, and 107 milliseconds.

I tried it once more today and was back to 32 years old.

Re: Brakes and Reaction Time
 

with practice, 50 years old. I'm 69.

Re: Brakes and Reaction Time

What Art said. :(


When I was in Driver's Ed (back in the last Century :p ), there was a "brake reaction time" tester in the classroom: There was an angled box on the floor, that had a gas pedal and a brake pedal on it. It was connected to a control panel that the instructor had.

We were to have our right foot on the gas pedal, as though driving, and when the instructor said "go!" ( or something like that ), we were to take our right foot off the gas and hit the brake pedal.

The control panel had a timer that would show the elapsed time between releasing the gas pedal and hitting the brake.

I do not remember my score, but it was an interesting exercise.
