<p>The method involves measuring, at each instant, distance (d) between the front side of a vehicle and the rear side of another vehicle (2). An instantaneous speed (V1) of the former vehicle is measured at the same time. The distance (d) is divided by the speed (V1) in order to obtain instantaneous inter-vehicle time (TIV). The time (TIV) is compared with a reference inter-vehicle time value (TSEUIL). The engine torque of the former vehicle is limited when the inter-vehicle time (TIV) reaches the value (TSEUIL). An independent claim is also included for an inter-vehicle time limiting device for the implementation of an inter-vehicle time limiting method.</p> |
