When driving in the dark or rain, it's generally recommended to maintain a following distance of at least four to six seconds behind the vehicle in front of you.

Adjust your following distance further if conditions are particularly poor, such as heavy rain or low visibility. Always prioritize safety by driving at a speed that allows you to stop safely.
