Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

When you are stopped at a traffic light or in a traffic jam and there is no vehicle behind, preventive driving recommends increasing the gap to the vehicle in front to at least about five or six meters. That space allows you to maneuver if a vehicle approaches from behind that does not brake in time; it is also advisable to stay alert to the rearview mirrors. It is a safety recommendation, not a fixed regulatory distance or a maximum of six meters.
