Question: Looking far ahead while driving helps you:
Answer options:
- Save fuel ✅ Spot hazards early and plan reactions
- Avoid eye strain
- See better at night
Correct answer: Spot hazards early and plan reactions
Explanation: Looking far ahead allows drivers to identify potential road hazards and traffic changes early, providing the critical time needed to plan and execute safe reactions. This scanning technique is an essential defensive driving rule outlined in the Official MTO Driver's Handbook, which recommends scanning twelve to fifteen seconds ahead of your vehicle. While proactive driving can occasionally reduce sudden braking and indirectly conserve fuel, looking ahead does not prevent eye strain or improve night vision. Expect questions like this on the G1 test to evaluate your understanding of active hazard perception and scanning habits, both of which are vital for preventing collisions on Ontario roads.
