What does it mean to rear-end another vehicle?

  1. To park incorrectly

  2. To hit the back of another car

  3. To engage in reckless driving

  4. To give direction to a driver

The correct answer is: To hit the back of another car

When a vehicle rears ends another vehicle, it specifically refers to the situation where one vehicle collides with the back of another vehicle. This type of accident often occurs in situations where the vehicle in front slows down, stops suddenly, or the vehicle behind fails to maintain a safe following distance. Such collisions are common in traffic and can result in significant damage to the vehicles involved, as well as potential injuries to the occupants. Understanding this term is crucial for recognizing safety protocols on the road and implications related to driving behaviors and responsibilities.
