When I tell people that a driver should strive to see 100% of the road where their tires will go when driving, I inevitably get a lot of responses from people who say it's impossible to do. I mean, you don't have to consciously focus on it, just make sure you can see it. That's what I learned in my defensive driving class, and I've been doing it for decades. Obviously, I can't do it perfectly, so there are rare times where I hit a pothole I didn't see, but I don't think you should be driving if you don't try to do this.

I always wonder how many potholes/animals/small children these people hit with their cars.

If it's impossible to do, that's a good reason to reject the idea of everyone driving in the first place.
