Question 4448

In view of this sign, how much distance must you leave between your vehicle and the vehicle traveling ahead?

  1. The mandatory safe following distance.
  2. A maximum distance of 70 meters.
  3. A minimum distance of 70 meters.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A minimum distance of 70 meters.

With the figure 70 m, the minimum separation sign requires you to stay at least 70 meters behind the vehicle ahead. This is a minimum distance, so you may leave more, and you may only move closer to pass it. Without a figure, the sign would remind you to keep a safe following distance.
