Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Keep a sufficient distance from the vehicle in the front. and at the side
Keeping enough space around your vehicle, especially from the vehicle ahead, gives you time to notice it braking, react and stop safely, even if it brakes suddenly. So such collisions can usually be avoided. Driving with headlights or distress lights on all the time does not shorten your stopping distance or prevent you from hitting the vehicle in front.
