When driving in the city you should scan the road at least by 1 to 1.5 blocks to ensure safety of everyone.
You should see as far ahead as you can. The farther you can see, the more time you have to prepare for whatever your are approaching, and for whatever is approaching you.
When driving ANYWHERE you should always scan as far as you can see. If you can see a mile up the road and there is a vehicle turned sideways in the road, you can start preparing for any event that may occur.
As far as you can. You should constantly scan far ahead, to the sides, close by and in between Don't let your gaze linger to long in one place, see what is a head and make up scenarios. "There is a car parked by the side of the road ahead, is there a driver that might step out suddenly" "There are some kids playing, do they have a ball that might roll into the street?" "It is getting dark, is there any animals starting to move around here?"
You should scan ahead as far as you can see
1 sec after its happens.
To scan for potential hazards you change your view constantly, looking far ahead, on the sides, and in the rear view mirrors.
You should scan ahead as far as possible. Do not fixate on the vehicle in front of you. Look down the road and expect the worse. If there is a car at an intersection expect it to pull out in front of you. If there is an oncoming car expect it to come into your lane and be prepared to take evasive action.
100 feet ahead of u
Look as far as possible to scan for any dangers, look too close, things move to fast, looking further ahead means things come slower
well if youre driving at high speed (80+) then you should look as far ahead as possible without losing focus on the road in front of you. If youre going normal driving speeds then about a quarter mile will do
20 seconds, or as far as you can see down the road.
