Which of these factors has a decisive influence on the determination of the distance from the vehicle in front of us?
aLength of the vehicle.
bWidth of the vehicle.
cSpeed of the vehicle.
Why?
The faster you drive, the larger the following gap must be, because you cover more ground during your reaction time and need a longer braking distance. The car ahead has its brake lights on and the road is wet, giving you another reason to leave more space. Vehicle length and width are not the main factors in choosing a gap that prevents a rear-end collision.
