When following a vehicle in bad weather, you should keep a minimum distance of ____.

  1. Two car lengths

  2. One car length

  3. 100 feet

  4. 200 feet

The correct answer is: 100 feet

During bad weather, it is important to increase the distance between you and the vehicle in front of you to allow for safe braking and reaction time. Option A and B suggest distances that may not be enough to provide sufficient distance for safe driving in bad weather conditions. Option D is a longer distance, but option C is closer to the recommended standard of 3 seconds following distance. It is always important to adjust your following distance based on the severity of the bad weather conditions. Therefore, option C is the best choice in this scenario.
