Explanation

Correct answer: 5 m.

In accordance with the Road Traffic Act, if a vehicle stops in a tunnel due to traffic conditions, such as the traffic jam shown in the picture, the driver is required to maintain a distance of at least 5 metres from the preceding vehicle. This regulation is intended to ensure there is sufficient space to manoeuvre and to facilitate a possible evacuation or access for emergency services in an emergency.
