The 3 second rule (sometimes it's a 2 second rule) refers to the spacing a vehicle should maintain when following another vehicle, regardless of speed. The theory is that the faster the vehicles are traveling, the greater the margin of safety (spacing or distance) between the vehicles will be.
What else can I help you with?
Does the proper following distance vary with speed?
Yes, using either the 2-second rule or the 3-second rule means that as your driving speed increases, you leave more distance between you and the car ahead of you.

Why is it important to know the exact speed of a vehicle?
to be able to understand/estimate the distance it would need to stop safely in case of an emergency, hence the 3 second gap rule for city driving and 5 second gap rule for highway driving, they estimate that to be about the distance you would need to have at the posted speed limit
When implementing the 3-Second Rule you should select a fixed or stationary object in the road ahead?
Yes, in the context of driving, when applying the 3-Second Rule, you should choose a fixed or stationary object on the road ahead. This helps you maintain a safe following distance from the vehicle in front of you by ensuring that you have at least a 3-second gap between your vehicle and the one in front.
