You are driving on a highway, and the traffic is particularly busy. The car directly behind your car is closer than the recommended time gap. What is the best way to reduce the chance of an accident ?
Increase the gap between your vehicle and the car in front of you.
Activate hazard lights to warn the driver behind you.
Press the brakes hard if you need to.
Point and swerve onto the hard shoulder to get out of the way of the vehicle behind you.
