When braking to avoid an obstacle, where should you direct your gaze?

  1. Look straight ahead

  2. Look down at the brakes

  3. Look where you want to go

  4. Look at the obstacle

The correct answer is: Look where you want to go

Directing your gaze where you want to go is crucial for effective maneuvering, especially in situations where you need to avoid an obstacle. This technique, known as “target fixation,” helps in maintaining balance and control of the ATV. When you look at the obstacle, your body tends to follow your line of sight, which can lead to a crash. In contrast, focusing on the path you wish to take encourages your body to steer towards that direction, allowing for a smoother and safer response to the situation. This practice is vital for developing quick reaction times and improving overall riding skills in the face of challenges on the terrain.
