The vehicle will maintain a constant distance between the vehicle ahead until: • The vehicle in front of you accelerates to a speed above the set speed. • The vehicle in front of you moves out of your lane or out of view. • The vehicle speed falls below 12 mph (20 km/h). • A new gap distance is set.
