It could also be that the impatient people on the road keep cutting them off, leaving them with less than two seconds between them and an ignorant driver who you will have to prove cut you off or you're at fault for the accident. Of course, that doesn't happen if there's no space in front of you for someone to cut in. So there's my hypothesis.

That's a fair point, when driving my wife's EV it has the fancy cruise control that leaves a good sized gap and people are always taking advantage of that.
