You don't seem to understand this, the math means fuck all, drive by theory and you will die, quite simple. Theory doesn't include irrational acts by other drivers, and who gives a flying fuck if you were right if you're dead?
I quoted this:
A safe distance is NOT 2 seconds' gap, it is a gap large enough to allow you adequate stopping distance in the prevailing conditions.
This includes weather, road conditions and surrounding traffic.
You keep missing this:
This includes weather, road conditions and surrounding traffic.
You took your eye off the most important car on the road relative to you, the one you nearly hit........
Now had you been driving for some years you would damn well know that at least 50% of people have no idea that a slip road allow them to match speed with, then merge into the traffic. They think it gives them time to stop to check traffic.
You nearly hit the car infront of you, because you did not pay attention to the surrounding traffic. You were to close to allow you time to check your blindspot, and stop if you had to.
Had you hit that car that was stopping to check traffic, damn right you would have been in the wrong.
