How to calculate the distance and time taken by a car

The formula for calculating distance is expressed as:

distance  = speed * time

Time = Distance/Speed

Given the following parameters

Distance = 50 feet

Speed = 35mph = 51.3ft/s

Time taken = 50/51.3
Time taken = 0.97

Hence you should keep 0.97 seconds of distance between you and the vehicle ahead.
