minus-squareschroedingershat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 year agoIf the cars are moving at over 5m/s then there will be for minimum safe followong distance. If they are moving under that, you don’t have a transport system that is more capable than a brisk walk.

minus-squareNouveau_Burnswick@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year ago5 m/s is 18kph or ~11mph. 40kph safe stopping distance is 26 meters dry, 30 meters wet. I can’t even find data below 40 kph, but 10m would be reaction time alone (no bake time)
minus-squarenslatz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoThe average speed in London is 8 mph overall, taking traffic into account.
minus-squarepkulak@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoSure, but only because they aren’t moving. It should be about the distance traveled in a couple seconds. Less then that and you get a lot of wrecks, so brand new problems.
