Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A vehicle traveling at 90 km/h needs to overtake a slower vehicle moving at 60 km/h. The driver has a reaction time of 2.5 seconds, and the road is flat. Calculate the OSD considering all factors.

💡 Hint: Start by calculating each part of the equation separately.

Question 2

Analyze how a steep uphill gradient would affect the OSD if the speed limit is 80 km/h, and vehicles must accelerate to safely overtake.

💡 Hint: Consider how gravity influences vehicle acceleration.
