Which of the following may be the result of too high pressure in the motorcycle tyres?
Explanation
Correct answer: Reduced braking efficiency
Excessively high pressure in a tyre causes it to become overly stiff, which leads to a significant reduction in its contact area with the road surface. A smaller contact area with the road means reduced grip, and this directly results in a longer braking distance and a decrease in the effectiveness of this manoeuvre.
