[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 353452, member: 4653"] I actually would like to discuss the first seeing habit, if I may. Aim High In Steering How do you do it?: Imaginary Target. Baseball. Dart Board. Whats it do for you?: Keeps car centered in travel lane. Smooth stops and turns. Key Phrase: "Find a safe path well ahead" I recently answered a question incorectly about this rule. It was: Which of the five seeing habits apply to backing? I circled all of them except "Aim High In Steering" According to UPS, the correct answer is all of them. I want to know how you are supposed to aim high in steering when backing to a dock? This is where I argue the validity of memorizing these rules. I know how to aim high when driving. I like it and use it. It helps me. It does not help me when backing. Can we follow the habit line for line and ask how it applies? Imaginary target? I don't want to focused on an imaginary baseball or dartboard (whatever that means???) when I'm backing the vehicle. I want to clear the area and move my eyes between each mirror and the camera. The seeing habit will "keep your car centered" but when backing, I don't want to be looking down the road, I want to be checking the rear, no? How am I supposed to "Find a safe path well ahead" when I want to back the vehicle about 25 feet??? That is my argument. I would like to hear how aim high applies to backing. Thank YOU. [/QUOTE]
