Expertz 1st Gear October 22, 2010 Share October 22, 2010 Yes I do practice the 2 second rule, for my new car. It's better be safe than sorry, on the daily AYE peak period, you really need to have safety distance. Suddenly, the front car can brake hard due to traffic slow down at many exit points! Many impatient drivers behind me cannot tahan the sight of 5 car lengths in front of my car. But I was just moving at the same speed as the front car!! Not going any faster even if I were to maintain a 2car length, although it might cool down the impatient driver behind me. Once an unlucky mazda3 was following behind me in the AYE, tried to overtake me, but I prevented it by speeding up. I have utter regards for the driver skills and car and braking skills. The front traffic has came to a crawl, and I waited till the last minute to brake hard. The mazda3 was super steady, and he braked even harder and managed to stop in time. All the while I was o bserving my rear view mirror, kudus to it braking skills. But in a split second, I heard a BANG, the Mazda was shafted halfway in between lane1 and lane2 by a kuku taxi which could not stop in time. The traffic in front of me moved, and I drove off with my journey. I was feeling so happy that day for being an evil person. I was so lucky that shafted Mazda did not surged forward and hit me. Again, I respect the Mazda driver must be still pressed on his brake pedal hard when that taxi shafted his behind. So you see, the safety distance is actually NOT for oneself, it's actually to give your car a smoother slow down, so that the rear car can have a safe emergency brake to avoid hitting your backside. Emergency braking is so easy in our modern car, 2car safety distance theoretically can braked in time. But it the kuku third car behind you that will not be able to brake in time, even if he is driving with the best BKK!!!! you are a MOFO kindly stay off the roads i'll scratch your car if i know what car you drive!

Tom_kkh 1st Gear October 22, 2010 Share October 22, 2010 so if car A is traveling at 100km/h and car B is two cars away at the same speed. so is car b road hogging? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copen 1st Gear October 22, 2010 Share October 22, 2010 I feel that car B is not wrong. However if u follow the 2 second rule then by right car A is also not road hogging. Cuz for every 10km/h should leave 1 car length. Since car A was travelling between 90-100km/h he should be leaving a gap of 9-10 cars whereas his gap was already smaller than that. lol. But I guess no one in singapore follows this. After you got your licence, usually we don't follow such rule liao.. E.G. if you want to turn right after a filter lane, will you keep at the left lane first then switch to right lane and turn right? or will you just go directly to the right lane when there is no car? I think given an alert driver 3-4 cars length is more than enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once he was hit in the back, he should have stamp on the accelerator and ram the car in front. The driver in front deserves getting whiplash and neckache for doing such an evil thing.

SimonTan 2nd Gear October 22, 2010 Share October 22, 2010 Cannot overtake means cannot overtake, don't say people MOFO. If skills so good would have overtaken no matter what. Honda jazz can smoke and keep up will most cars. I drive safe. Not impatient. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
