Question: If your view ahead is blocked by a large vehicle, you should:
Answer options:
- Tailgate ✅ Increase your following distance
- Pass immediately
- Use high beams
Correct answer: Increase your following distance
Explanation: Increasing your following distance behind a large vehicle is correct because it opens up your field of vision, allowing you to see road hazards ahead while giving you more time to react. Tailgating is highly dangerous as it completely blocks your view and reduces stopping distance, while passing immediately without a clear view risks a head-on collision. High beams will not help you see around the vehicle and can blind the driver ahead. Under Ontario's Official MTO Driver's Handbook, maintaining a larger space cushion behind large vehicles is a fundamental defensive driving rule. This concept is highly relevant for G1 exam questions focusing on safe spacing and sharing the road.
