Correct answer

292 feet
392 feet
192 feet

If you are traveling at 60 mph, it will take an average of 292 feet (almost the length of a football field) to react to a hazard, step on the brake, and come safely to a stop. This is why you should use your high-beam headlights at night when possible. Your low-beam headlights let you see only about 100 feet ahead.
