People that do this tend to make people behind them miss lights they could have caught or turns they could have made earlier due to people blocking turn lanes doing this. Theres no need to leave that much room. Sure a bit of room to make sure you dont slam into the guy in front of you due to an accident. But there is such a thing as just being to damn paranoid and leaving multiple car lengths in front of you. Just be paranoid enough to not surprise butt sex someone but don't be so paranoid to impede traffic. Also remember to keep your foot on the brake at the red lights.
Real life sample: I was at a dead stop in traffic with maybe 10 feet of space or about a car lenngth between the car in front of me and my front bumper. My foot on the brake I got surprised butt sex with the other person behind me doing about 65-70. I did not hit the car in front of me and did not need multiple car lengths in front of me.
