What are some things that affect stopping distance?

  1. Color of the car

  2. Weather, tyre/brake conditions, speed of travel, health, ability, alertness

  3. Type of radio playing

  4. If the windows are up or down

The correct answer is: Weather, tyre/brake conditions, speed of travel, health, ability, alertness

The other options, such as color of the car, type of radio playing, and if the windows are up or down, do not have a direct impact on stopping distance. Instead, they may indirectly affect the driver's ability to react or make effective decisions while driving. Factors such as weather, tyre/brake conditions, speed of travel, health, and alertness have a direct impact on stopping distance and are related to the condition of the vehicle and the driver. Therefore, these factors are more likely to affect stopping distance and should be considered while driving.
