How many Seconds Pass in 525 Hours?

Following distance is typically measured in seconds. A common rule of thumb is the "3-second rule" where you should leave at least 3 seconds of following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. To measure this, pick a stationary object on the side of the road, wait for the vehicle ahead of you to pass it, and then count how many seconds it takes for you to pass the same object.

When you come within 100 feet of an intersection or a railroad crossing, passing another vehicle is permitted.
In order to safely pass a vehicle at any speed, you need to have plenty of room to get around the slower vehicle. You shouldn't pass on a curve or a hill, and you should never pass a motorcycle in the same lane the motorcycle is driving in.
The time it takes to pass a vehicle traveling at 50 mph depends on the length of the vehicle and the speed at which you are traveling. For example, if you are driving at 60 mph and the vehicle is 20 feet long, it would take approximately 5-6 seconds to pass the vehicle safely. This includes the time to accelerate and create a safe distance between you and the vehicle you are passing. Always ensure you have enough space and visibility to execute a safe pass.
