Explanation
Tailgating, or following too closely behind another vehicle, can lead to frustration and anger in other drivers. To avoid tailgating, it is important to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially in heavy traffic or on highways. If you are being tailgated, you should leave more space between you and the vehicle in front of you to allow for a safe stopping distance.
