At 20 miles per hour the average driver from the moment he sees danger until he hits the brake will travel about 44 feet.
At 20 miles per hour the average driver, from the moment he sees danger until he hits the brake, will travel about:
110 feet
229 Feet
about 220 feet
At 20 mph, the average driver will travel approximately 88 feet before hitting the brakes. This accounts for the time it takes for the driver to perceive the need to stop and physically apply the brakes.
The average driver takes about 1.5 seconds to perceive danger and react by hitting the brakes. At 50 mph, a vehicle travels approximately 73.33 feet per second. Therefore, in 1.5 seconds, the driver would travel around 110 feet before hitting the brakes.
55 feet
It will take an average of 229 feet to stop after going 50 miles per hours after seeing danger to stop. This will vary according to condition of brakes and drivers reaction time.
to my expierience in my current vehicle I have calculated that I can make an emergency break at 50 miles per hour of 8 to 12 feet.

The distance you travel from seeing the danger to putting your foot on the brake pedal is called the "perception-reaction distance." This distance reflects the time it takes for a driver to perceive a hazard and decide to act on it. It varies based on factors such as the driver's alertness and speed of the vehicle. This distance is a critical component in determining overall stopping distance.
