What is the safe distance between cars?

[DiMadelyn]

The safe distance varies with speed. At 40 km/h, maintain 40 meters; at 60 km/h, keep 60 meters; when speed drops to 20 km/h, 10 meters is sufficient; and at 15 km/h, 5 meters will do. To avoid rear-end collisions while driving, follow these methods: Remind the following vehicle to maintain a safe distance: If you notice the car behind is following too closely, lightly tap the brakes to alert them to keep a safe distance. If traffic ahead is dense and moving slowly, turn on your hazard lights to warn the following vehicle. In fact, activating your rear fog lights can also serve as a warning to prevent being rear-ended. Avoid tailgating: Pay attention to the distance between vehicles, ensuring both the distance to the car in front and behind remains within safe limits. Regularly check your rearview mirror to confirm the position and distance of the following vehicle. Use lane changes or gentle braking to alert the car behind, and try to avoid getting too close to it.
