WARNING
Following other vehicles too closely in-
creases the risk of collisions and serious

- Setting short distances to the traffic
ahead reduces the time and distance
available to bring your vehicle to a safe
stop and makes it even more necessary
to pay close attention to traffic.
-Always obey applicable traffic laws, use
good judgment, and select a safe follow-
ing distance for the traffic, road and
weather conditions .
