When not intending to overtake, a safety distance behind the preceding vehicle of at least 100m or a minimum interval of four seconds must be maintained. In the case of vehicles whose MAM exceeds 3,500kg, the safety distance behind the preceding vehicle must be at least 150m or a minimum interval of six seconds.
