Do large trucks and bus take longer to stop?


Do large trucks and bus take longer to stop? The stopping distance of trucks increases with heavy loads, which cause them to accelerate more quickly when going downhill and take longer to come to a complete stop. According to FMCSA, trucks are often 20 to 30 times heavier than passenger vehicles.


Do buses ever skip stops?

The bus is on a route that doesn't include stopping there. The bus is going out of service and is not picking up more passengers. The bus is completely full and no-one is getting off at that stop, so no-one will be able to get on and there is no point in stopping.
