Let's see how long it takes us to pass.
So, we need a gap of 968 feet to pass at 55 right?
Not even close.
That oncoming car will travel the same distance we do.
Gap City.
That's what makes passing on two lane roads so dangerous.

At 55 miles per hour, we travelled about 968 feet.
The human eye can't detect motion.
Gap City.
Let's see how long it takes us to pass.
Let's see how long it takes us to pass.
That leads to rule two.
When curves or hills keep you from seeing far
enough ahead, assume there's a car just about to appear.
We need the same distance to a hill or curve as to an oncoming car.
Here comes the last rule.
Gap City.
