Whilst travelling across open moorland in gusty weather and drifting fog patches, you notice visibility and steering stability are affected. Which TWO measures should you take to keep safe margins around your vehicle?
- Significantly extend the separation gap behind the vehicle aheadCevap
- Allow extra lateral room to allow for unexpected sideways gustsCevap
- CFollow closely behind the vehicle ahead to navigate using its rear position lamps
- DKeep to the standard two-second time gap assuming the road surface itself is completely dry
Cevap
The driver should significantly extend the separation gap behind the vehicle ahead and allow extra lateral room to accommodate unexpected sideways gusts.
In adverse conditions combining poor visibility and sudden crosswinds, safe driving requires widening both longitudinal and lateral safety envelopes. Expanding following distance ensures sufficient space to react and halt safely when hazards appear late through fog patches. Concurrently, maintaining generous side clearance prevents sudden gusts from forcing the vehicle into adjacent lanes or roadside hazards.
