"The faster you go the bigger the mess"

Today Constable Julie came to Glenbrae school to teach us about the stopping distances. Room 7 was really glad that she came because she told us what we didn't know.

If a car was going 30 km a hour it would take about 15 meters to stop. Constable Julie measured out 70 meters and got us to estimate different stopping distances.It help me to see it outside with the measurements.

I thought that if  car was going 60 km per hour around Glenbrae School there is more chance of them hitting a pedestrian. The faster they go the more distance they will need to stop.
