Creating awareness around safe distance between driving cars
Policy Element type: Action
Description
Keeping sufficient distance from the vehicle in front of you is essential to avoid rear-end collisions. Nevertheless, the average road user in Flanders didn’t put the distance rule into practice. The basic rule for a safe following distance is however simple: on a dry road you must always keep two seconds away from your vehicle in front.
