The number of traffic accidents due to non-keeping safety distance is quite large. So the team of\u00a0 Z&X Cars\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>advise you not to drive faster than it is allowed and to keep enough distance.<\/p>\n

For your safety and tranquility you need to know what should be the safety distance between two cars on the road, how to evaluate this distance, and how much time is needed to react.<\/p>\n

The distance,\u00a0you need to keep while driving, between your vehicle and the one in front of you is called safety. That distance should provide you with safe and trouble-free stop in case of sudden braking or deceleration of the vehicle in front of you.<\/p>\n

But what should be the distance?<\/h2>\n

The safety distance depends on the speed of the vehicle. Therefore it is appropriate not to speak for meters but for seconds. This way will be easier for you to calculate the distances.
\nThe recommended distance that must be followed is: 2 seconds in normal conditions and 3 seconds in adverse weather conditions (rain, snow or fog). I.e the distance that your vehicle travels for 2\/3 seconds.<\/p>\n

Factors that have influence on vehicle’s braking<\/h2>\n

There are several factors that have influence upon vehicle’s braking, and the driver’s reflexes are not some of them.
\nFor example: If you drive faster it will take more time to react and the distance should longer.
\nStatistics show that a person needs one second to react. Don’t forget the braking time (the time from pressing the brake pedal to the complete stop of the vehicle), which also has an impact.
\nAnother factors: road, weather, technical conditions and driver’s behavior at that moment.<\/p>\n

How to calculate the correct safety distance?<\/h2>\n
