Show answer

Correct answer

  • A100 m.100 m.
Explanation

In tunnels and underpasses, when you do not intend to overtake, you must keep a distance of at least 100 m, which is the same as a gap of 4 seconds. Vehicles with a maximum authorised mass over 3,500 kg must keep a distance of at least 150 m or a gap of at least 6 seconds.
