I agree with the "especially the other cars around us" but the cars coming toward us??

I can't focus my eyes on cars 15 feet to the left of me (let alone see someone in one of those cars waving) AND be watching the cars around me efficiently. What about the cars to the right of you??? Shouldn't your eyes be on them??

I guess it could work if you were on a one-lane road, but not many of those exist nowadays in urban cities...
