Re: [RC] Braking time (was: So Cal, etc.) - D'Arcy Demianoff-ThompsonNot to mention the DMV recommendation of ONE car length for every 10 MPH. So, how many car lengths is it for a truck and trailer? Yes, I want Kat to break this down by every truck and trailer combination there can possibly be and submit it to ride camp for a resource management tool. We can all print it out and carry it with us whereever we go! :)
See Barbara when they don't allow you your personal comfort space you should have the right to get on a loud speaker to talk to the guy in front of you: "Hey, idiot, that space allowance, was not an invitation to pull in front of me, it is to allow me not to run over your stupid ass!"

One of my pet peeves is the driver who cuts into the space in front of me while I'm driving a horse-laden trailer. I tend to prefer a space between me and the vehicle in front of me, so if I have to make a sudden stop, I have a bit more room in which to do it. Usually that space is an invitation to drivers to pull in front of me. As Kat says, people who don't understand horses don't realize how this is impacting my safety and that of the horse(s) in the trailer.
