Drive using the slow three second rule. Stay behind the car in front of
you by a full slow three seconds ...... no matter what the speed. More
if the road is wet or icy.
So far as oncomeing vehicles .... no rule except keep in mind that the
damn fool in the other car is 100% unpredictable ....... keep a sharp
eye out!!!
