What is the safe following distance on highways during snowy conditions?
1 Answers
Regulations stipulate that when visibility is less than 200 meters, a minimum distance of 100 meters should be maintained from the vehicle ahead; when visibility is less than 100 meters, a distance of over 50 meters should be kept. If visibility drops below 50 meters, vehicles should exit the highway. Below are precautions for driving in snowy conditions: 1. Wear appropriate tinted glasses: Driving on highways during snowfall often causes glare. Wearing suitable tinted glasses and taking proper breaks can prevent glare and eye fatigue, helping to better observe the road ahead. Maintain a calm mindset, avoid rushing, and respond composedly to emergencies to ensure safe arrival at your destination. 2. Maintain a safe distance: Due to slippery conditions in snow, it's essential to keep a sufficient safe distance from the vehicle in front.
