A driver should generally look ahead about 10 to 15 seconds while driving, which translates to roughly one block in urban areas and a quarter of a mile on highways. This distance allows the driver to anticipate potential hazards, adjust their speed, and make safe decisions in advance. Keeping this forward focus helps maintain a safe following distance and promotes smoother driving.
