The design speed of a two-lane two-way road is 60 km/h and the longitudinal coefficient of friction is 0.36. The reaction time of a driver is 2.5 seconds. Consider acceleration due to gravity as 9.8 m/s². The intermediate sight distance (in m, round off to the nearest integer) required for the load is..... [GATE 2020 - 2 marks - CE]
