The resulting
closing speed was compared to the reported

The brake assist plus system spots vehicles and warns if the gap is too small or the

This
closing speed aftereffect is quite distinct from the well-known adaptation of the perceived speed of self-motion that is caused by the expanding retinal flow pattern (Denton, 1976; i.e., drivers underestimate their driving speed following adaptation).
A mid-course correction ensures that Cougar always attacks from astern, which means a slower
closing speed is needed.
Clamp force, opening speed,
closing speed and pressing speed are all manually adjustable.
Its versatile frame provides efficiency and reliability, and the
closing speed and crimp pressure are adjustable.
It may also surprise you to learn that the
