This depends on your speed. From a legalistic standpoint, there is no set distance; that's not to say you wouldn't get pulled over for tailgating. In general, you should keep enough distance between you and the vehicle in front of you so that if they were to suddenly slam on the brakes, you wouldn't hit them.
