How does a partially loaded tank vehicle's stopping distance compare to a fully loaded one at the same speed?

Pick an answer

1. It is always shorter and more predictable
2. Stopping distance is unaffected by how full the tank is, since the brakes are sized for the vehicle's maximum rating
3. It can be less predictable, since surging liquid can keep pushing the vehicle forward as it brakes
4. It is identical, since both count as a loaded vehicle
