What is the purpose of the two second rule?

To judge the correct speed for turning
To maintain a safe following distance
To measure the stopping distance
To calculate fuel efficiency

The correct answer is: To maintain a safe following distance

The two second rule is a guideline for maintaining a safe following distance while driving. This means that you should always have at least two seconds of space between you and the car in front of you, regardless of your speed. When we're driving, it's important to leave enough space between ourselves and the car in front of us so that we have enough time to react in case of sudden braking or other road hazards. Option A states that the purpose of the two second rule is to judge the correct speed for turning. This is incorrect because the two second rule is not related to turning at all. It is solely focused on maintaining a safe distance between cars while driving in a straight line. Option C suggests that the two second rule is used to measure the stopping distance. This is incorrect because the two second rule only focuses on maintaining a safe following distance, and does not take into account other factors
