Where will most hazards or obstacles be detected relative to your vehicle?

Most hazards or obstacles will typically be detected in front of your vehicle. This is largely because the area directly ahead is where you will encounter the majority of potential dangers while driving, such as other vehicles, pedestrians, traffic signals, and road conditions. This forward-focused awareness allows you to anticipate and react to changes in traffic flow or obstacles, adjusting your speed and trajectory as needed to maintain safety.

While obstacles can certainly exist behind, to the side, or even above your vehicle—such as in parking situations or unique driving environments—front detection is paramount in typical driving scenarios. Forward visibility provides the driver with the necessary information to navigate the road safely and make informed decisions well ahead of time.
