Question

Which of the following sight distances is the longest of all?

A.

Overtaking sight distance

B.

Illumination sight distance

C.

Stopping sight distance

D.

Intersection sight distance

Correct option is A


Among the different types of sight distances, the overtaking sight distance is the longest. This distance is required to ensure that a driver has enough visibility to safely overtake another vehicle on a road without encountering oncoming traffic.
Stopping sight distance: The distance required for a driver to stop safely when an obstacle is encountered.
Illumination sight distance: The distance within which the road is visible under artificial lighting conditions.
Intersection sight distance: The distance required to see and react to vehicles or pedestrians at intersections.
Therefore, the longest sight distance is the overtaking sight distance.
