Police officers demonstrating the exponential increase of stopping distance resulting from a linear increase in speed.

A big round of applause for our "special" helper, Matthew!

  • Skidding dont stop the thing as fast.

  • @benjyboba True, but sadly the average driver doesn't know this...

  • To look at the ute it looks to be part of the CVIU division of the police. Only it doesnt have the stacked Red/Blues on the Right corner of the windscreen...

  • @speedyresponsemedic Yeh I was thinking the same thing, never seen it at the CVIU base though.

  • a nother difrence it has 2 red ! grillies 

  • @scotsfire No they are actually red and blue from the front, but the lenses on them must act as a prism or something, because they often looked odd colours from an angle, like amber and purple.

  • They are demonstrating hoe high speed can be fatal for children and they neglects the 2 childrens seating on the fence in a dangerous close distance to the road !

  • Yeah that is a different type of unmarked car! Even the new police cars dont have their dash lights that far apart!! And the last time a saw those grill lights was before the brought in the new livery! Great vid!

  • @NZpolice107 ABS increase braking distance...threshold braking is the key, not stomping down hoping for ABS to engage and lengthen stopping distance.

  • that Ute is one ugly motherf**ker

  • Why no ABS brakes?? They have been around since the late 90's Commodores!

  • I've seen an exact unmarked ute like that in Palmerston North, but it was white, and I've only seen it once so it must not be from around here..
