I still hear my driving instructor saying this, 30 years ago. Thanks. :D
Comment on How much spacing while stopped at a red light?

When I took my driving test. The correct spacing was taught as, if you can see their bottom back tires visible above your hood, then that’s the correct distance.

I don’t know… People have wildly different positions in a car and this easily fluctuates for a few car lengths. Then again, people in general suck at estimating distances.

so with modern hood heights, that’s… 30 meters?
