Correct answer
Increase the safety distance
Increase separation to allow more margin, while adapting speed and maintaining observation, including mirrors. Moving closer or paying less attention does not improve safety. The gap must allow stopping without a collision if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly. If visibility makes continued driving unsafe, seek a permitted safe stopping place; a larger gap does not always make continuation safe.
