I'm having trouble with staying in my lane while driving.?

Question

I think that I have bad depth perception. Any tips on how to fix?

Answer 1

Look ahead to the car in front of you, not the road right after the hood of your car.

Answer 2

Don't talk on your cell phone wile driving.

CONS TRACTION.

Answer 3

Look ahead and try to stay within the white lines, also u can follow the cars ahead of u. I had the same problem, but with experience i'm way better now.

p.s. get ur eye sight checked.

Answer 4

It is probably because you're not looking ahead to where you want to go and allowing your peripheral vision to guide you. If you look at the lines and the end of your hood, you'll swerve.

Answer 5

GO TO AN OPTOMETRIST & HAVE YOUR VISION CHECKED

Answer 6

2 possibilities. its either your vision or the car's wheels need an alignment.

Answer 7

See optometrist.  But also, have your front-end alignment checked.  If off, it causes car to drift to one side or the other.

Answer 8

Do not drive

Answer 9

yeah stop driving til you go to an eye doctor, goof. you might get hurt, or hurt someone else.

Answer 10

Yeah, see a doctor. And until you get it fixed, stay off the road, or you're gonna end up killing someone.

Answer 11

Instead of trying to go eg. in the center of the lane all the time, try to follow a distant point. So you won't be making corrections all the time, this will make it feel more straight.

People that have a depth perception problem are not able to judge the distance of objects based on their vision. This is because their brain has a problem with putting the image of the two eyes together with the extra information of the distance of what they look at. Maybe you have a parallel vision, similar to depth perception problems, where your brain can't mix the images of the eyes into a 3D sight. But in case you cover one of your eyes, you should be able to go straight. If you manage it with one eyed covered, then you MAY have a parallel vision. This illness usually occurs when the muscles which are moving the eyes, can't make the eyes to cross their sight appropriately. Maybe there's a treatment for this, which involves correcting the movement of the muscles surrounding the eyes, but it's surgery.

Don't be scared, if you had an eye problem, you would know it. Good luck! :D

Answer 12

As a general rule, usually when you're looking to your right the middle of your hood or where emblem might be should be touching the white line.  That's a pretty good way to guage if you're too far over or not.

Answer 13

See an eye doctor!

Answer 14

why don't u get an eye exam  and see if your eyesight is bad. Always drive so that when you look out the front window and look at the hood of your car, the  middle of the front of your hood should be in line with the white line on the side of road.  There isn't any reason you should lose your license for this. Maybe you should take some defensive driving courses to better your skills behind the wheel of your car.
