(N/A) Anil explained that as the speed of a vehicle increases,the braking distance also increases. Specifically,if the speed is doubled,the braking distance becomes four times. In an emergency,if the vehicle in front were to apply brakes suddenly,Anil's father would not have been able to stop his car in the available distance,even after applying the brakes. This would have likely resulted in a life-threatening accident.
