Correct answer

Explanation

The gap must allow you to stop the lorry without a collision if the vehicle in front brakes sharply. Inside a tunnel with several lanes in your direction, it is important to keep a proper safe distance so that you can stop the lorry without hitting the vehicle in front if it brakes sharply.
