Don't tailgate! With that warning in mind, what is the recommended following distance on the road?
Answer 3 seconds
Generally, your following distance should be at least three seconds in order to allow you time to react in risky or hazardous situations. To calculate this, find a fixed object in front of you – a sign or a pole – and count until your arrival to determine how far the next car is in front of you.
