If it is raining and you are tired how many seconds of following distance?

If it is raining and you are tired, you probably should not be driving - you are a hazard to yourself and other drivers when you drive in those conditions. However, if you must drive, keep a solid 10 to 15 seconds of following distance between you and the next car on the road.

If it's raining and you are tired while driving how many seconds of following distance should you use?

Usually in good conditions you want to have 2-3 seconds of distance between you and the car in front of you, for every hindrance (ie. rain) you add one second of distance. So in your case being both tired and having to deal with rain, i would say have at least 5+ seconds distance. I wouldn't recommend driving while sleepy as your reaction time and judgment decreases while tired, if you think you are getting too tired please pull over and take a quick nap.
