Five seeing habits
Aim high in steering
Get The big picture
Keep your eyes moving
Leave yourself an out
Make sure they see you
29. 29
1 - Aim High in Steering
ACTION Zone 4 to 6 seconds, do an action immediately!
SEEING Zone 12 to 15 seconds, check hazards to adjust conditions
your vehicle, pick a target in the center of your lane
PLANNING Zone 30 to 120 seconds, you have time to smoothly and safely
avoid the danger.
!
3 ZONES:
33. 33
Centre your vehicle on
the lane.
Spot early the drivers
who are:
– Driving erratically.
– Lurking behind a truck.
Avoid Head on, Head collision
1 - Aim High in Steering
35. 35
1 - Aim High in Steering
Watch for other
drivers lurking
behind others in
oncoming traffic.
!
Never go into the
opposite lane,
the oncoming
driver may
attempt to swerve
back to that side
of the road
Keep in mind that Head-Ons are deadly and better to hit
a stationary objects than approching vehicle.
36. 36

In front you.
On your Left
On your Right
Behind you
Below you
Above you

time?

41. 41
If you make the decision to pass,
Don’t forget : turn signal, check mirrors,
