I'm with Peter Jack as far as where to look out when riding or driving...
On a bike, I look as far forward as possible... And the faster the furthest...
In a car, same!!!
For anything that's near, I just rely, like the birds and my cat, on movement or change of status, that's what peripheral vision, no matter how blurred, is for...
Same for butt feel, that's the only way, added with sense of balance in your ears and spacial geometry.
Lots of guys/gals don't have it, them the ones that will crash if they try too hard without these essential feedback loops...
