SIGHT DISTANCE
Definition : The actual distance along the road surface , which a driver
from a specified height above the carriageway has visibility of stationary or moving object is known as sight distance.

Restrictions to sight distance may be caused as shown in fig.
• Sight distance at horizontal curve

Stopping sight distance (SSD)Definition : The minimum sight distance available on a
highway to stop a vehicle travelling at design speed , safely without collision with any other obstruction is xalled stopping distance.

• For the purpose of measuring stopping sight distance , IRC has suggest clear sight triangle as shown in fig. ,

Factors affecting stopping sight distance
Speed of
vehicle
Efficiency of brakes
Total reaction time of driver
Friction resistance
between road & tyres
Gradient of the road

Lag distanceDefinition : The distance travelled by the vehicle during
the total reaction time is known as lag distance .
Reaction time of the driver is the time taken from the instant the object is visible to the driver to the instant the brakes are effectively applied.

What is PIVE Theory ?Acc. To PIVE theory the total reaction time of the driver is
split into four parts .
Perception time
Intellection time
Emotion time
Volition time

1) Perception time : It is the time required for the sensations received by the eyes
or ears to be transmitted to the brain through the nervous system .
2) Intellection time : It is the time required for understanding the situation.

3) Emotion time : it is time elapsed during emotional sensations & Disturbance
such as fear , anger ,etc. with reference to the situation . 4) Volition time : volition time is the time taken for the final action.
Lag distance = v * t
Where, v = speed of vehicle in m/s t = total reaction time (s) [ as per IRC t = 2.5 s ]
