Correct answer
The distance that allows me to stop without colliding with the vehicle in front if it brakes sharply.
On urban roads, if we don't intend to overtake, we must keep a safety distance that allows us to stop without colliding with the vehicle in front, in case it brakes sharply. We should always be prepared to react to any unexpected situation, especially in areas with heavy traffic. It is our responsibility as drivers to ensure that the safety distance is sufficient to react in time.
