To effectively search the total traffic scene, drivers should monitor the area _______ of the vehicle. A.) To the rear of the vehicle B.) To the side of the vehicle C.) To the front of the vehicle D.) All around the vehicle Get the CORRECT Answer All around the vehicle Define central vision. Central vision is the five degree cone that makes up only three percent of a driver's total visual field. Central vision provides the greatest amount of detail of objects and conditions, and is the primary visual function used in targeting, or looking specifically at, one object or one area. This vision makes up on the 3% of a drivers total Fieldview. Part of a field of vision where you can see clearly and sharply. Define Peripheral vision. A conical in shape (side vision) around the other vision field. Ability to see objects as they come into the outer edges of the visual field. Broadest type of vision that detects presence, color,and motion, providing drivers with. information about moving and stationary objects that could be threats along the intended path of travel. It also gives you a sense of the speed at which you are traveling. The quality of peripheral vision is strongly affected by alcohol and other drugs, fatigue, and speed of travel. Define fringe vision. Fringe vision is used to judge depth and position. It's scope is larger than that of central vision, and it provides information about lane position and objects close to the drivers travel path. Line of sight Imaginary line extending from your eyes to a point of focus Field of view Entire area of the road and surroundings that is visible to you at any given moment. Ground viewing Directing your search, knowing where to look and classify information, organizing information in your brain and filtering it. Explain how to perform ground viewing and how it can help reduce risk. Describe how to perform ground viewing and explain how this technique can reduce driving risk. How to perform ground viewing Search the ground to judge a vehicles speed/ any changes in speed, determine whether other drivers are about to change direction/ maintain lane, lane position, locate markings or unusual road conditions and locate small children/ animals behind cars. It can help by detecting movements/ prepare you to respond to actions of other roadway users that could increase level of risk. How this technique can reduce driving risk Although your main visual lead area ahead is up to 20 to 30 seconds down your path of travel, searching the ground directly ahead and to the sides can provide important information to support and safe safe driving. For example, shadow on the pavement can indicate a slick spot or a car in front of a truck you want to pass. This technique can also help drivers to spot children, other roadway users, pedestrians, and animals located behind or between park cars, which is particularly helpful in residential areas and parking lots. You will be alert to roadway markings or signs and road conditions. Identify five common errors of drivers with poor visual habits Five common errors of driving with poor visual habits. 1. Do not prepare for stops or turns far enough in advance 2. Do not notice traffic tie-ups in advance 3. Become trapped behind large trucks, slow moving or double parked vehicles 4. Are unaware of vehicles about to pass, distracted 5. Are unaware of their own speed Explain why drivers should have their low-beam headlights on during daylight hours. Driving with your low beam headlights on during daylight hours makes you much more visible from nearly 1 mile away to road users. Drivers will be able to spot you from a mile away compared to half a mile. Low beam headlights light up a small area in front of you, usually about 200 feet. Low beams point more toward the ground, limiting the amount of light directed into the eyes of drivers coming toward you in the darkness. This means your lights are not blinding that driver, thus making you and the other driver safer. What are the two steps in selective searching? Step 1 - know where to direct your search Step 2 - classify your information into major groups What do the steps in selective searching allow you to do? Selective searching: They help you sort out all the functioning info you need to process when driving Orderly search patterns: Helps you gather information about what is happening ahead, to the sides, and behind your vehicle How many components are there to a selective search pattern?Selective Search works by over-segmenting an image by combining regions based on five key components: Color similarity. Texture similarity. Size similarity.
When you use an effective visual search as you drive you should?As well as looking ahead, you should be periodically scanning to the sides of your vehicle. Use your mirrors to check for vehicles in your blind spot and beside your tractor and trailer. Scan your mirrors (and gauges) every four seconds. Mirrors should be used when changing lanes, slowing down, merging, or turning.
How does a driver develop a visual lead?Good visual habits involve establishing a path of travel with a targeted area 20-30 seconds ahead of the vehicle. This is known as visual lead. As speed increases: When you are unable to see you target area ahead, you should reduce your speed.
When driving blind areas include those areas you Cannot see when?Blind Intersections
An intersection is considered “blind” if there are no stop signs at any corner and you cannot see for 100 feet in either direction during the last 100 feet before crossing.
