Final answer:

The correct answer is False. When stopped at a traffic control device, it is important to maintain a safe following distance from the vehicle in front of you.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is b. False.



When stopped at a traffic control device, it is important to maintain a safe following distance from the vehicle in front of you. The general rule is to stay at least one car length behind the vehicle in front of you, which allows you enough space to react and stop safely if needed. Staying back far enough to see the rear tire of the vehicle in front of you may not provide enough distance to safely stop in case of an emergency.



It is important to always be conscious of your surroundings and follow the rules of the road to ensure the safety of yourself and others.
