are you looking as far down the road as you can? if not you are not looking far enough ahead.
Looking Ahead - album - was created in 1987.
Depending what speed you are going, but the general rule of thumb is to look ahead about 10 seconds. so as you are driving look for a fixed object and count to 10 if you reach it before 10 seconds look at something further away and if it take longer than 10 seconds look closer. but you should not always do this as you might wreck if you are not looking at the road. so just try to get a basic idea and stay at safe distances.

False
to walk ahead
If you are frequently having to apply the brakes then you are not looking far ahead enough see what is happening down the road. As a former professional driver I always look down the road a quarter mile ahead ... driving a 20 ton bus makes one think well in advance in traffic as contrary to popular belief vehicles with air brakes do not stop on a dime.Allow one car length for each 10 miles per hour of speed between you and the car in front of you. Tailgating the car in front of you will not get you to your destination any faster and will only aggravate the driver in front who will most likely drive slower. If you have to hurry to get "there" then going "there" isn't worth it in the first place.
Slow down, assess the situation and give the emergency vehicle plenty of room.
"Planning is looking ahead" because is done for future and done so by keep future situations in mind to be proactive in future rather reactive.
