You might be in good condition but what about the road condition (wet, icy), the state of you tyres (good tread or worn), the state of your brakes?

The best estimate for the total stopping distance of a car traveling at 66 kilometers per hour would depend on various factors such as road conditions, vehicle condition, and driver reaction time. However, a rough estimate could be around 40 meters to 55 meters.
Stopping distances are measured in feet not in seconds. At 40 mph you're traveling 58.7 feet per second. The average driver reaction time is about 3/4 second which equates to 44 feet. After applying the brakes it will take approximately 82 feet to stop the vehicle. The total stopping distance for a car traveling 40 mph will be 126 feet when you include reaction time and actual stopping distance of the vehicle. If you divide 126' x 58.7' which is the distance traveled per second you get 2.14 seconds. This is assuming you're paying attention and have average reaction time while driving.

For a car with good brakes and a length of 4m, a dry road with a driver with average reaction time it will take approximately 36m/118 feet/nine car lengths for it to stop. This can be divided up into two sections the thinking distance/reaction distance of 12m and a braking distance of 24m. Like the previous answer stated the braking distance can be changed depending on the road surface type and weather conditions or if the car is fitted with an Anti-lock Braking System Thinking distance can be increased by drinking alcohol or taking some types of drugs.

Not enough information in your question. It will depend on multiple factors, like vehicle weight, vehicle condition, tire condition, road surfacing and type of road surfacing, driver reaction speed.
It depends on the reaction time of the driver. This could be affected by his reaction speed or whether he is intoxicated. In any case the faster he is travelling the longer the thinking distance will be.
The total stopping distance is determined by a combination of factors including the driver's reaction time, the vehicle's braking distance, the road conditions (like wet or icy roads), and the speed at which the vehicle is traveling. These factors interact to determine how long it takes for a vehicle to come to a complete stop.
Speed, weight of vehicle, condition of road surface, condition of tires, and reaction time of the driver.
The formula for thinking distance is given by: the speed of the vehicle multiplied by the reaction time of the driver. Mathematically, it can be expressed as: Thinking Distance = Speed × Reaction Time.
It is a physical property not a reaction

No. A slushy is a physical reaction. The mixture is frozen, therefore it is a physical reaction.
The color of the vehicle does not affect the total stopping distance. Factors that do affect stopping distance include speed, road conditions, driver reaction time, and vehicle condition.
