🚗💨 TAILGATING: THE TICKET YOU DIDN'T SEE COMING 🚨
Running late? Frustrated with slow traffic? We get it — but riding someone's bumper is one of the most common causes of rear-end collisions, and it's ticketable on its own, even if no accident happens. 😳
"Failure to maintain a safe following distance" might sound minor, but here's what it can mean for you:
📏 Fines that vary by state and how close you were following
📉 Points added to your license
📈 Insurance rates that can climb after just one violation
⚠️ If it leads to a rear-end accident, you could be presumed at fault — even if other factors were involved
📋 Multiple violations can add up to bigger consequences down the road
The general rule of thumb is the "3-second rule" — but weather, speed, and road conditions all change what's actually "safe." Officers have some discretion here, which means these tickets are often worth contesting. 🔍
Got a following-too-close ticket, or were you involved in a rear-end accident where fault is being disputed? Let's talk before you just pay the fine. 💼
