What should be the distance from a preceding tram while driving?

Explanation

Correct answer: Enough to allow a collision-free stop of the vehicle.

The principle of maintaining a safe distance requires the driver to keep such a distance from the preceding vehicle that they can brake safely at any time and avoid a collision. It should be taken into account that the braking distance of a tram is significantly longer than that of a car, and its driver is unable to change course to avoid an obstacle.
