What is the definition of peripheral vision?

  1. An area you can see around you while looking straight ahead

  2. Your side view of an area

  3. A narrow view down the center of the road

  4. A tool for diagnosing vehicle engine issues

The correct answer is: Your side view of an area

Peripheral vision refers to the ability to see objects and movement outside of the direct line of vision. It encompasses your side view of an area, allowing you to detect objects, people, or vehicles coming from the side without having to turn your head. This wide field of vision is crucial for maintaining awareness of your surroundings while driving and helps you anticipate potential hazards or changes in traffic flow.
