This has not been the case for some time, and 3 seconds is now taught in NSW and Victoria.The recommended safe following distance according to all driver training schools is 2 seconds.
There are chevrons on sections of the M1 around Newcastle and the Sunshine Coast and probably other places.Much like the chevrons used on French (and probably other European) motor ways.
No. I put mine on 7 and can never count to 3.Okay, after all that, is Tesla follow setting 3 equivalent to 3 seconds gap?
That's probably why I have been using 6 or 7 on the freeways and 3 around town. But it would be good to know the real numbers.No. I put mine on 7 and can never count to 3.
Yes. For the Model 3, I think it's page 84 in the owner's manual. It's the same explanation as what I quoted above, including the typo.Okay, after all that, is Tesla follow setting 3 equivalent to 3 seconds gap?
Link to the current Australian Model 3 user manual, it's specific and clear.The 2023 user manual is non specific other than that bigger numbers are a longer gap.
Have you tried recalibrating the cameras?If I'm the only person seeing the 'latching onto the slow lane' behavior I feel there may be some bugs to smash.
Yes I did, but it does not tell me what the numbers mean other than 7 is further/longer and 2 is shorter/closer. In my view it is not specific.Link to the current Australian Model 3 user manual, it's specific and clear.
How can a legal follow distance be 3 to 4 seconds. It cannot be a range. its like saying the speed limit is 60 to 70 km/hrThe 2023 user manual is non specific other than that bigger numbers are a longer gap. Looking at the US Y forums I picked up the following two tit-bits:
"I got pulled over in my Model S by the Montana Highway Patrol for following too closely a couple of weeks ago. He said my following distance was 1.8 seconds. My TACC was set to "3". I then set it up to "7" and timed the following time, which turned out to be roughly 2.3 seconds. Apparently, in Montana, the legal following distance is "3-4 seconds." Since the freeway speed limit is 80 mph, that puts the minimum following distance at 352 feet, or roughly 25 car lengths. The patrolman didn't give me a ticket."
and
"
I got pulled over in Montana for not maintaining a 4-second following distance.
Tesla's 7 setting maintains about 2.5 seconds."
Having just done that, it makes a massive difference when the system is not working anywhere near how it should.Have you tried recalibrating the cameras?
Starting cruise control depends on the tesla model you have. Starting it is well explained in the relevant manual available on your big screen.Have done basic questions.
How do I start cruise control and set the speed?
What is Tacc -
And auto steer. I turned on auto steer (beta). Is it needed for cruise control to work?
Can you point me up thread that addresses basics. Am sure it had been answered a million times. Not requesting to repeat of that is the case.
