Safe DrivingPregunta 74 de 80
A safe following distance for a large bus should be:
a.The same as a car, about two seconds
b.Greater than a car because the bus is heavy and needs more room to stop
c.As close as possible to prevent cut-ins
d.Not important at low speeds
Explicación
Because a school bus is heavy and takes longer to stop than a car, the driver needs a larger following distance. A common guideline is roughly one second for every 10 feet of vehicle length at low speed, adding time at higher speeds and in poor conditions. More space gives more time to react.
