The driver of a vehicle approaching a signalized intersection at a speed 40 kmph applied brakes on seeing the signal changing from green to amber and the vehicle was brought to stop on the prescribed stop line during theamber time of 4 sec. If the reaction time of driver is assumed as 1 sec. Compute the average friction coefficient developed. Comment on the value of friction coefficient determined.
