- As a driver, you have the most control over your front zone.
- By maintaining at least a 3-second to 5-second following distance between your car and the car in front of you, you will be able to avoid a rear-end collision.
- When you use Zone Control effectively, you are always mindful of your:
- line of sight (LOS)
- path of travel (POT)
- Your line of sight (LOS) refers to what you can see in all directions around your vehicle.
- Reducing your speed and increasing your following distance will help you control your vehicle safely when your line of sight is limited.

Your line of sight might be blocked by:
- Road features such as hills and curves
- Other vehicles (such as a large truck in front of you).
- Buildings
- Trees
