Linear perspective is the pictorial depth cue that applies to the apparent convergence of parallel lines toward a common point, which is known as the vanishing point. In the case of a long, straight stretch of road, the parallel sides seem to converge at the horizon, creating the illusion of depth and distance. This is an example of linear perspective. The other options, atmospheric perspective, texture gradient, and light and shadow, are not applicable to this situation.
