Pick an answer

Correct!

Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.

Correct answer to question 26 (Doubles/Triples): Acceleration will be slower than a single trailer, so you need a larger gap and more time to reach highway speed

Why

The added weight of a second trailer slows acceleration, so merging safely means picking a larger gap and accepting that reaching traffic speed will take longer than with one trailer.
