  • [Alberta Class 6] 11, Braking, Stopping Distance, and Traction
    This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams.
    In this episode you will learn:
    - Front brake proportion: The front brake delivers approximately 70 percent of total stopping force due to forward weight transfer during deceleration.
    - Total stopping distance breakdown: Perception distance, reaction distance, and braking distance combine to form total stopping distance, with braking distance quadrupling when speed doubles.
    - Surface and load influences: Wet surfaces, gravel, downhill slopes, and passenger weight alter traction limits and extend overall stopping distance.
    - Front-wheel lock recovery: Releasing the front brake lever completely and immediately is required if the front wheel locks to restore steering and balance.
    - Rear-wheel lock management: A locked rear wheel on a straight road should remain locked until fully stopped to prevent a high-side crash from out-of-alignment release.
