Car, pedestrian, fall from the fifth floor. What do these elements have in common?

Car, pedestrian, fall from the fifth floor. What do these elements have in common? The total braking distance, taking into account the reaction time at a speed of 60 km / h, is about 50 m. In difficult weather conditions, with ice or snow, it can be increased several times.

Hitting a pedestrian at that speed is like pushing him off the fifth floor of a house. “Drivers are unaware that a pedestrian hit by a car traveling at 60 km/h has little chance of surviving. The analogy of jumping off a building perfectly illustrates the level of risk to life. Many cars even in the city center move at a higher speed, regardless of the season and speed limits, says Zbigniew Veseli, director of the Renault Driving School.

There is a saying: more people die from exhaust fumes than from accidents.
