[QUOTE="Peter Holmes, post: 177605, member: 302"] I know it is very easy to say, but don't you just ride accordingly, even if I am following at a sensible distance I still try to make sure that I am not centrally behind the vehicle in front, thereby keeping my escape route clear should I need it. I continually see drivers in modern cars with superb braking systems, driving so close to the vehicle in front that even if their car could stop on a sixpence as we used to say, and their reflexes were on a par with a Formula1 racing driver, they would still be ploughing into the rear of the vehicle in front.
