Table 1 Components of Total Brake Response Time
From: Osteoarthritis of the knee or hip significantly impairs driving ability (cross-sectional survey)
1. Reaction time | 2. Movement time | 3. Device response time |
|---|---|---|
- Sensation | - Lift the foot off the accelerator pedal and transfer it to the brake (Foot Transfer Time) | - Time it takes the device to engage once activated |
- Perception/recognition | - Depress the pedal (Brake Pedal Travelling Time) | |
- Situational awareness | ||
- Response selection | ||
- Programming |
