What is the following distance when driving below 100 km/h on the highway?
1 Answers
When driving on the highway, if the speed of a motor vehicle exceeds 100 kilometers per hour, it should maintain a distance of more than 100 meters from the vehicle in front in the same lane. If the speed is below 100 kilometers per hour, the distance from the vehicle in front in the same lane can be appropriately shortened, but the minimum distance should not be less than 50 meters. Below is relevant information about following distances: 1. Road speed limit requirements: According to traffic experts, road speed limits are mainly set based on the road environment and traffic flow needs. For example, some suburban roads may only have two lanes in both directions but allow a maximum speed of 70 km/h; in urban areas, some roads may have eight wide lanes, but in densely populated or inconvenient traffic areas, the speed limit might be 40 km/h or 60 km/h. 2. Different speed limits for different road sections: Even on the same highway, speed limits can vary for different sections, especially in areas with sharp curves, slopes, tunnels, bridges, ramps, or construction zones. The speed limits may be adjusted and can change based on actual conditions. Generally, the maximum speed limit for passenger cars on highways is 120 km/h, but due to factors like road environment in the actual design and construction of highways, speed limits can range from 80 km/h to 120 km/h.
