HOW TO USE THE TIMED INTERVAL RULE Find a fixed reference point up ahead, such as a road sign, a bridge, or a light pole. When the rear of the vehicle you're following passes that reference point, start counting the seconds it takes for the front of your vehicle to reach the same point. If the front of your vehicle reaches the reference after you have counted off the required number of seconds, your space should be adequate. If you count fewer than the required number of seconds, you're tailgating! Back off and establish a safe following distance. Bigal, I hope you're planning to learn this and not just looking for a quick answe to pass a driver's test. It is vital for your and everybody else's survival on the road that you know this stuff.
