Grammar questions

Read the following paragraph to answer the next two questions:

Tailgating another vehicle is unsafe and illegal. Many rear-end collisions are caused by drivers following too close to the vehicle in front of them. The rules state that a driver must keep sufficient distance from the vehicle in front in order to stop safely and avoid a collision. Drivers should allow a minimum two seconds’ gap between their vehicle and the one ahead. At sixty kilometres an hour, this equates to thirty-three metres; at a hundred it equates to fifty-five metres. More distance is needed to safely stop in rain or poor visibility.

QUESTION Tailgating another vehicle is unsafe because:

• All rear end collisions are caused by drivers following too close to the vehicle in front.

• it is against the road rules.

• It may not allow sufficient time and space to stop and avoid a collision.

• None of the options is correct.
