The rule of thumb for determining the stopping distance is: thinking distance (speed divided by 10 times 3) plus braking distance (speed divided by 10 times speed divided by 10). At 50 km/h, this is 50 divided by 10 times 3 equals 15 m thinking distance plus 50 divided by 10 times 50 divided by 10 equals 25 m braking distance. The stopping distance is 40 m. In case of emergency braking, this value is halved. That would be 20 m in this example.
