His claim is not true. If the car stops instantaneously, then it must possess infinite retardation, which is not possible.

The average time taken by a normal person to react to an emergency is one$-$fifteenth of a second and is called the 'reaction time'. If a bus is moving with a velocity of $60\, km h^{-1}$ and its driver sees a child running across the road, how much distance would. the bus had moved before he could press the brakes ? The reaction time of the people increases when they are intoxicated. How much distance had the bus moved if the reaction time of the driver were $\frac{1}{2}\, s$ under the influence of alcohol ?
