In the NBA, there is also a defensive three second call. If a defensive player is in the painted area for three seconds while not guarding an offensive player, the officials can call a defensive three second violation.

Answer 1: It varies from state to state. Some states' laws specify it in car lengths, one per each ten miles per hour that you're traveling......and other states' laws use the either "two-second" or "three-second" rules, wherein you pick a landmark up ahead of the car in front of you and begin counting seconds as soon as said car passes it, then you stop counting seconds as soon as youpass it. If your state uses the "two-second" rule, then you're following too closely if you reached the landmark before you counted two seconds. Same for the "three-second" rule, if that's what your state uses.Of course, the most accurate measurement is actual feet -- and some states do that -- but it's pretty difficult to measure that while driving, so most states' drivers manuals specify either the car-length-per-ten-miles-per-hour rule, or the far better two- or three-second rules. The three-second rule is best of all, and it's the most common among the states.
