At 60 km/h, the impact force is how many times that of 30 km/h?
Two times.
Three times.
Four times.
Six times.
Impact force increases with the square of the speed. Since 60 km/h is twice the speed of 30 km/h, the impact force becomes four times (22 = 4) greater.
A two-way left-turn lane should not be used for:
Making a left turn.
Entering a driveway.
