ahead or a vehicle following behind
you.

sharp curves or with heavy tra ffic
where su fficient distances between
vehicles cannot be kept.
 The vehicle is driven on roads where
acceleration and deceleration are
frequently repeated.
 The vehicle is exiting the main lane
on an expressway to enter an
interchange, a rest area, or a parking
area.
 The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
 The vehicle is driven on a long
downslope.
 The vehicle is driven on a steep
slope.
 A two-wheeled vehicle such as a
motorcycle or bicycle is traveling
