  3. FTP-75 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FTP-75

    SFTP US06 is a high speed/quick acceleration loop that lasts 10 minutes, covers 8 miles (13 km), averages 48 mph (77 km/h) and reaches a top speed of 80 mph (130 km/h). Four stops are included, and brisk acceleration maximizes at a rate of 8.46 mph (13.62 km/h) per second. The engine begins warm and air conditioning is not used.

  4. Foot per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_per_second

    The foot per second (plural feet per second) is a unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector quantity, which includes direction). [1] It expresses the distance in feet (ft) traveled or displaced, divided by the time in seconds (s). [2] The corresponding unit in the International System of Units (SI) is the meter per second.

  5. Driving cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driving_cycle

    A driving cycle is a series of data points representing the speed of a vehicle versus time.. Driving cycles are produced by different countries and organizations to assess the performance of vehicles in various ways, for example, fuel consumption, electric vehicle autonomy and polluting emissions.

  6. Stopping sight distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopping_sight_distance

    The design sight distance allows a below-average driver to stop in time to avoid a collision in most cases. Driver perception/reaction distance is calculated by: d PRT = 0.278 Vt (metric) d PRT = 1.47 Vt (US customary) Where: d PRT = driver perception-reaction distance, m (ft) V = design speed, km/h (mph) t = brake reaction time, in seconds

  7. Braking distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braking_distance

    Braking distance refers to the distance a vehicle will travel from the point when its brakes are fully applied to when it comes to a complete stop. It is primarily affected by the original speed of the vehicle and the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road surface, [Note 1] and negligibly by the tires' rolling resistance and vehicle's air drag.
