The correct answer is C. In driving, the basic following distance rule refers to maintaining a safe distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. The guideline commonly followed is to find an immovable object on the side of the road, such as a sign or a tree, and then count 'one thousand and one, one thousand and two' as the vehicle ahead passes that same spot. This method ensures that you have enough space to react and stop safely if the vehicle in front suddenly brakes or encounters an obstacle. Adjusting this following distance based on road conditions and visibility is crucial for safe driving.
