In Danish traffic rules, how should the following distance be adjusted when driving on wet or icy roads?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Increase the following distance to at least 3 to 4 seconds or more to account for extended braking distances
- Step 1: Wet and slippery roads double or triple braking distances; drivers must expand their following distance to at least 3 to 4 seconds to prevent rear-end collisions. Answer: Increase the following distance to at least 3 to 4 seconds or more to account for extended braking distances. Why not the others: ABS maintains steering control but cannot overcome physics on slippery surfaces, tailgating in rain causes blinding spray and collisions, and cruising alongside another car eliminates escape routes.
