Most rear end collisions are caused by following too closely. To avoid this in good conditions, use the three-second rule. When the vehicle ahead of you passes a certain point, such as a sign, count "one-thousand-one, one-thousand-two, one -thousand-three." This takes about three seconds. If you pass the same point before you finish counting, you are following too closely.
