What should you do if you see a vehicle too close behind when you're driving in traffic on the motorway?


Explanation

"The faster the traffic is moving, the greater the distance that needs to be kept between vehicles to maintain safety margins. If you find another vehicle driving too close behind you, gradually reduce your speed to increase your distance from the vehicle in front. You'll then be able to brake more gently when you need to, reducing the likelihood of the vehicle behind running into the back of your vehicle."
