A driver travelling on a wet road sees a red traffic light \(80\) m ahead. The driver's reaction time is \(1.5\) s and the wet‑road braking deceleration is \(4\ \text{m s}^{-2}\). If the speed limit is \(50\ \text{km h}^{-1}\) and the driver is travelling at an unknown speed \(v\) km h\(^{-1}\), determine the greatest speed \(v\) (to the nearest km h\(^{-1}\)) at which the driver can still stop before the line without exceeding the speed limit. Also state whether travelling faster than this speed would constitute a traffic offence under the regulation that any failure to stop within the visible distance is a violation.

Answer Options

A. Maximum speed \(v = 45\) km h\(^{-1}\); exceeding this speed would be a traffic offence.
Correct Answer B. Maximum speed \(v = 50\) km h\(^{-1}\); exceeding this speed would be a traffic offence.
C. Maximum speed \(v = 52\) km h\(^{-1}\); exceeding this speed would be a traffic offence.
D. Maximum speed \(v = 48\) km h\(^{-1}\); exceeding this speed would be a traffic offence.

B
Correct Option:
Maximum speed \(v = 50\) km h\(^{-1}\); exceeding this speed would be a traffic offence.
