If your vehicle is heavily loaded...
A)It will only affect consumption.
B)It will affect consumption and braking distance.
C)It will affect consumption, braking distance and stability.Correct
The greater the weight, the higher the consumption, since more power is required to move the vehicle.
Braking distance increases due to the weight of the vehicle, and the risk of skidding is greater as centrifugal force increases.
Braking distance is the distance covered by the vehicle from the moment the driver applies the brake until it comes to a stop. This distance can vary depending on the following factors:
- The speed at which you are travelling.
- The condition of the tyres, suspension and brakes of the vehicle.
- The vehicle's load.
- The condition of the pavement.
- The weather conditions on the road.
