Question 2575
If your vehicle is heavily loaded, you must keep in mind that...
- The vehicle's fuel consumption decreases.
- The vehicle's stopping distance will be shorter.
- Acceleration will be lower and the braking distance longer.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Acceleration will be lower and the braking distance longer.
A heavy load reduces acceleration and increases the space needed to brake. You must therefore plan maneuvers further in advance.
