Tailgating can be defined as a driver who is following the car in front of him/her much too closely. Driving schools will correctly teach students to invoke the two-second rule to determine a safe following distance. To invoke this rule, please select a fixed object on the road and count "one-thousand-one, one-thousand-two". You should not reach the object before you count to one-thousand-two. If you do, you are following too closely. Most rear-end collisions are caused by the vehicle in back following too closely.
