On a motorway, what can you do to reduce the risk of an accident if the vehicle behind you is following too closely?

Explanation: If the vehicle behind is too close, you should gently lower your speed to increase the distance between you and the vehicle in front. This provides more space ahead of you in case you need to brake or stop, and reduces the likelihood of collisions. If there is a collision, the gap in front reduces the likelihood of multiple vehicles being involved.
