  "text": "The stopping distance shall be the distance covered by the vehicle from the moment when the driver begins to actuate the control device of the braking system until the moment when the vehicle stops; the initial vehicle speed (v1) shall be the speed at the moment when the driver begins to actuate the control device of the braking system; the initial speed shall not be less than 98 % of the prescribed speed for the test in question. The mean fully developed deceleration dm shall be calculated as the deceleration averaged with respect to distance over the interval vb to ve according to the following formula:\nd m = v 2 b − v 2 e 25,92 s e − s b m ∕ s 2 Where:\nv1 initial vehicle speed calculated as described in the first subparagraph\nvb vehicle speed at 0,8 v1 in km/h\nve vehicle speed at 0,1 v1 in km/h\nsb distance travelled between v1 and vb in metres\nse distance travelled between v1 and ve in metres\nThe speed and distance shall be determined using instrumentation having an accuracy of ± 1 % at the prescribed speed for the test. The dm may be determined by other methods than the measurement of speed and distance; in this case, the accuracy of the dm shall be within ± 3 %.",
