I read this online

Is the dark font correct?
I was driving 62 in a 65mph zone, and I was following approximately 3-4 seconds behind the car in front of me. The cars in front of me in both lanes were following like 10 feet from the bumper of their leading cars, yet he chose to stop me

If so could you tell me of a better way?
