How much following room should you allow behind a cyclist?
A follows cyclist B in the same lane.
Correct answer: Enough to stop safely if the cyclist wobbles or falls
Why
Leave plenty of following room behind a cyclist, especially one who is wobbling. Allow enough space to avoid striking the rider if they fall, and adjust for speed, surface and visibility.
