^Most common answer on DMV Permit Tests is: A Safe Distance.
May sound stupid, but no one ever said the government was smart.
That will depend on the weather, road conditions, the loading in YOUR car and the speed you are driving at. At all times you must make sure that your distance behind the car inform is more than your safe stopping distance.
Take the car to a licensed mechanic and get it checked out. Mechanics will only charge you when archery working on the car. They will tell you for free weather or not the car is safe to drive
7 car behind
Normally the car that hit the other car is going to be at fault. The vehicle behind you was obviously too close and was not following at a safe distance that would allow him to stop if you did. The police should have issued him a ticket.
it is safe to drive slower because you could get in a car accident if you drive really fast
NO! Depends on your definition of safe?

You should always remain a safe distance when you are behind another vehicle. The recommended amount of space that you should leave is one and half car lengths.
The driver is responsible for the condition of the car and the safety of passengers. It it is not safe to drive, don't.
It will be safe to drive short distance as long as the car does not over heat. You can top up the engine coolant or use water/coolant mixture till you fix the problem which could be leaking hose pipe. leaking radiator or faulty radiator cap
Because a truck is heavier than your car, it takes longer to stop than you do. If you drive closely ahead of a truck you are asking for trouble. If you have to stop suddenly, there is no way they are going to be able to stop as quickly as you, even if they see you stop. A truck may also roll right over you instead of just rear-ending you, and flatten your car like a pancake. Moral of the story - keep a safe distance from trucks!
