Question 2306
When driving on a freeway, what safe following distance must a passenger car maintain from the vehicle ahead?
- Enough distance to stop in the event of sudden braking and to allow others to pass safely.
- Enough distance to stop without colliding with the vehicle ahead if it brakes suddenly.
- 50 meters.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Enough distance to stop without colliding with the vehicle ahead if it brakes suddenly.
On a freeway, you must leave enough space to stop without a collision if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly. The additional gap intended to make passing easier is not required.
