A driver is travelling 20 % above the speed limit of \(50\ \text{km/h}\). The driver's reaction time is 1.5 s. The road has a coefficient of friction \(\mu = 0.7\) and the acceleration due to gravity is \(g = 9.8\ \text{m/s}^2\). The stopping distance is the sum of the reaction distance \(v\times t_r\) and the braking distance \(\dfrac{v^2}{2\mu g}\). Can the driver stop safely within a 30‑metre distance to a red light? Answer "Yes" if possible, otherwise "No".
