Correct answer to question 395 (General Knowledge): Increasing your own following distance ahead gives you more room to slow gradually rather than braking suddenly

Why

When someone is following you too closely, keeping extra space ahead of your own vehicle lets you slow down gradually instead of braking hard, which reduces the tailgater's risk of rear-ending you.
