    B. A licensed person 18 or older in the front passenger seat

  5. You are driving a car at night on a dry road. What following distance does the Wyoming manual recommend?

    • A Four seconds
    • B Two seconds
    • C Six seconds
    • D Eight seconds
    Show answer

    A. Four seconds

    The manual says to double your following time when roads are wet, when carrying a heavier load than normal, or at night, which is four seconds for a car. Darkness shortens how far you can see, so you need more time to react.
