Rear
Can Be Avoided
Whether the rear end that is bent belongs to the car ahead or the vehicle you are driving, chances are the . accident that caused it normally could have been prevented, says the Institute for Safer Living. Certainly there are many things that can gang up on a driver in accidents of this sort, but there are really only two hazards to avoid. One is bending the end of the guy ahead and the. other of having your own rear end bent. In either case the best protection is to maintain speed and space control to make it largely unnecessary for sudden stops. The Institute for Safer Living of the American Mutual Liability Insurance Company advises not to be fooled into a false sense of security by thinking that your observance of one vehicle length interval for each ten miles per hour of speed will provide you with enough space to keep you from ramming the guy ahead. This is a minimum interval which applies only under the most favorable conditions and with one or two vehicles ahead of you. When speed is high, the weather is bad, the road slippery or the line of cars at minimum interval is long, you need more interval to bring your vehicle to a stop soon enough to keep from bending the end of the vehicle ahead.
