Sight Distance Analysis

AUSTROADS/NZTA

Stopping Sight Distance (SSD)

  • Design Speed (km/h): Operating speed of the road
  • Grade (%): Uphill positive (Positive for uphill, negative for downhill)
  • Reaction Time (s): Typically 2.5s for design
  • Road Condition:
    • Dry (f = 0.35)
    • Wet (f = 0.28) Friction coefficient for braking
  • Required Stopping Sight Distance: 0 m
  • Reaction Distance: 0 m
  • Braking Distance: 0 m

Passing Sight Distance (PSD)

  • Design Speed (km/h): Speed of passing vehicle
  • Speed Differential (km/h): Speed difference between vehicles
  • Opposing Vehicle Speed (km/h): Speed of oncoming traffic
  • Required Passing Sight Distance: 0 m
  • Initial Maneuver (d1): 0 m
  • Passing Distance (d2): 0 m
  • Safety Clearance (d3): 30 m
  • Opposing Vehicle (d4): 0 m

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
