Question 5664
On urban roads, if you do not intend to pass, what safe following distance must you keep from the passenger car ahead?
- One that allows motorcycles to pass safely.
- One that allows you to stop without colliding with the vehicle ahead if it brakes suddenly.
- Always 50 meters.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: One that allows you to stop without colliding with the vehicle ahead if it brakes suddenly.
In built-up areas, you do not have to leave room for others to pass you, including motorcycles. The 50-meter gap is required for large vehicles outside built-up areas. Behind the white passenger car in the image, keep enough distance to brake without a collision if it brakes suddenly.
