为什么要砸LZ，车到了灯下面变黄了，就要冲过去，拼命急刹车还冲出线停住多么危险。
到路口的时候看报时觉得停不停，不然看小手闪不闪，如果需要停早点做出刹车的迹象，毕竟路不是一个人的，开车也要有公德的
有一次，我直行的时候突然有个老白女人左拐出来，因为我离的太近，所以她拐弯的速度特别快，结果车尾甩出来，我必须急刹车，她就甩到我前脸了，结果因为我的急刹车，后面3辆车差点都撞一起去了，还好我后面的车反应快蹿到左道上了，否则那个左转的肇事车跑了，我们4辆车都撞一块了，当然我是没有责任，可是如果真撞了，打人孩子的人生安全就不是大家的玩笑话了。后来，我后面的车赶上我，狠狠的责问我，LG跟他解释情况，他也没多说，毕竟路上的杀手出没没规律的。看来后面的车是不了解前面的情况的，不能当目击证人的。

前车没责任，后车跟太近了。
This thing happened to me once. I rear ended the car in front of me. The guy in front of me急刹车，而且整个车都过了线。I was 100% at fault for insurance. The guy in front of me got a ticket for failing to stop for red light. He chose to fight the ticket in court at Elgin Street stating he made a great effort to stop. I was one of the witness (3 witness in total including his wife in the car). The judgement from the court - He was guilty.很难说。如果你老婆在线前面停下来了，我负责。您也是急刹车，而且整个车都过了线。50/50，

Maintaining a Safe Following Distance for Defensive Driving
Keeping a safe following distance is by far one of the easiest, yet most commonly broken rules of defensive driving. Even if you follow every other defensive driving technique, you can't possibly be a safe driver unless you follow this rule each and every time you drive. If you keep your distance from other drivers, you will almost always have an escape route, or will be able to take some sort of evasive action with ease.
Determining your safe following distance
At a MINIMUM, during dry weather conditions, you should have at least 2 seconds of space between you and the vehicle in front of you (3 seconds is better). Do this by using a fixed object such as a bridge, tree, or even a crack or shadow in the roadway. Once the rear bumper of the vehicle in front of you crosses that object, begin to count... one-thousand one, one-thousand two, one-thousand three, etc. If you don't make it to 2 by the time your front bumper crosses that same fixed object, you need to increase the following distance. Of course, being further away than 3 seconds isn't only acceptable, it's recommended.
Safe following distance for poor weather conditions
When visibility is low such as light fog, light rain, or nighttime driving, you should double the following distance to a minimum of 4 seconds. This will seem like a large gap between you and the vehicle in front of you. That's ok. I promise, it won't make your drive much longer, if any longer, than if you were tailgating. Adding a few seconds following distance is a very minor inconvenience for a huge benefit should something occur. Everyone "thinks" they are driving far enough behind the vehicle in front of them, yet rear-end collisions are one of the most common forms of traffic accidents. Use the counting technique for following distances, and you can be much more confident that you're driving at a safe distance.
Following distance during extreme weather
Finally, when driving during major inclement weather such as snow, ice, heavy rain, etc., you should increase your safe following distance to a minimum of 6 seconds (during extreme icing events, as much as 10 seconds is recommended). Yes, this will seem like an eternity. But if you are in a hurry during major poor weather conditions, you are an extreme hazard to yourself and everyone around you. Relax, back off, and keep your distance. While driving in hazardous conditions, you shouldn't be concerned with what time you arrive at your destination. You should be concerned with simply arriving there. Some people like to stay close to the vehicle in front of them because they believe it helps increase their visibility. Yet that kind of thinking is exactly how multi-car pile up accidents occur.
Keeping a safe distance can be a challenge
Keeping these following distances will be very tough at times, especially during heavy traffic. Other vehicles will continuously cut you off and close the gap. In a sense, they are taking advantage of your safe driving skills to try and get slightly further ahead. That's ok. Remember, they aren't a great defensive driver like you are. And someday, it'll probably catch up to them. Don't get angry with them. Simply adjust. You have made the choice to be a safe driver, so it's up to you to adjust your driving skills around the actions of less educated and less talented drivers. Most people don't even realize they are being poor drivers. So don't take it personally when somebody performs an unsafe driving maneuver around you. Just adjust, keep your distance, and adjust again. In heavy traffic, the cycle seems never ending.
A safe following distance won't cost you time
Many people think an increased following distance will cost them too much time, especially when driving in traffic. No doubt, you'll be cut off and will need to further open the space between you and the vehicle in front of you. It'll be a constant challenge and you'll have to constantly adjust. But just how much time will it cost you?
Well, let's say for every car that cuts you off, you lose 5 seconds from your day (a pretty liberal number). And lets say you're cut off 50 times during your commute (that's a lot! But it makes the math easy). That means, you'll arrive at your destination a whopping 4 minutes later than if you reduced the following distance. And lets face it, does each car that cuts you off really cost you 5 seconds? And do you really get cut off 50 times during your commute? You really aren't losing much time. An accident would be much more costly.
Don't forget about your sides
While maintaining a safe following distance, it's also important to keep a driving buffer zone on the sides of your vehicle as well. Remember the driving tip about always having an escape plan and leaving an out? That applies here. While it's not always possible, try your best to keep as many escape routes open as you can. Sometimes this is out of your control, but whenever possible keep the lanes next to you clear.
As for the rear of your vehicle, there isn't much you can do here. The front of your vehicle is almost always within your control. The sides are sometimes in your control. The back is very difficult to control.
How to handle tailgaters
For a more thorough explanation, see our how to deal with tailgaters page. But if you are being tailgated, try changing lanes. Let off the gas pedal and very gradually slow down to entice the tailgater to pass. Remember to look ahead! The last thing you want to do is be caught off guard to a potential hazard.
Don't fixate on the tailgater. Never be intimidated. Remember, YOU are the safe defensive driver, not the tailgater. It's up to you to keep a safe following distance. You can't control how others drive. So keep practicing all the defensive driving techniques, slow down, and be ready for any potential hazard. With any luck, the tailgater will pass. Otherwise, don't worry about it. Do your thing, and control what you are able to control. You don't have any personal connection to the person who is tailgating you. So there is no reason to feel the need to satisfy him or her by speeding up. Chances are, no matter how fast you go, they will continue to tailgate anyway.
So remember, keep a safe distance! And as always, drive safely!
