As you would imagine, this relates to telling people to maintain adequate distance between you and the vehicle in front of you. Oftentimes, people have the habit of driving too close to the vehicle ahead. This leaves no room for sudden braking in the event of emergency situations. It is a rather common phenomenon that our roads are full of surprises and an animal can come in front out of nowhere. Also, one could even find people trying to cross the road amidst heavy traffic. In all such scenarios, the drivers have to apply brakes spontaneously leaving no time for the driver behind the car to react properly.

Hence, people end up hitting the tail-end of cars, as a result. With this advisory, however, the police wish to intimate the general public regarding driving slowly and maintaining a proper gap between you and the vehicle in front of you. Also, truck drivers are known for putting witty and at times, philosophical quotes at the back of their trucks and people always enjoy what they have to say. Therefore, this is a great inspiration drawn from this popular activity. What do you think about this act from the Police?
