Final answer:

To cross the street safely, you should have a gap of at least 4 meters in each direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

To cross the road safely, you should be able to walk at least 2 meters further than the width of a car, which is a total of 4 meters. So, you should have a gap of at least 4 meters in each direction before crossing the street.
