|
|
|
The condition and type of vehicle tires.

Explanation
Vehicle stopping distance depends on various factors such as driver reaction time, road conditions, tire treads, and brake conditions. However, the time of day is not one of those factors that affects stopping distance. Factors such as visibility, traffic density, and weather conditions may vary depending on the time of day but they indirectly affect stopping distance through their impact on the other factors. Nonetheless, the time of day itself does not have a direct effect on the stopping distance.
