The best drivers can see into the future...kind of – by looking ahead via one of these recommended times/distances. Which of these is NOT a recommended amount of space needed to react to an approaching hazard?
Answer Around 4 car lengths
4 car lengths (about 60 feet) won't give you the time you may need to react to an approaching hazard. 12-15 seconds, a city block, and .25 miles are equivalent and should allow you enough time to change lanes or come to a stop if need be.
