The typical perception-to-reaction latency of an alert driver to a hazard is about 1-2 seconds. 250 ms when you're waiting for an event and know how to respond. For example, like a batter in baseball waiting to swing.

Correct, I just focused on pure reflexes to directly compare to Hz. Reacting strategically to unexpected situations is understandably slower.
