Stopping sight distance (SSD) is defined as the distance needed for a driver to see an object on the roadway and then stop before colliding with it. It's composed of the distance to react on first seeing the object and then the distance to stop after the brake is engaged. The following is a formula for determining stopping sight distance: ssi) = (. | c:/ + |-. SSD is the stopping sight distance (m or ft e is the conversion...
