BDifficulty 2/5

You are driving a lorry with a maximum authorised mass (MAM) of 3,000 kg. What distance must you leave on this stretch of road?

Correct answer

50 metres.

When driving a vehicle with a MAM of less than 3,500 kilograms, as in the example, we must always leave a sufficient safety distance from the vehicle travelling in front to allow us to stop without colliding with it in the event of sudden braking.
