Scanning means using your vision to read the surroundings in a proper way. This regards keeping your eyes moving and concentrating your vision on moving objects (for instance on cyclists and not parked cars) and not keepingyour gaze on these objects for too long. In addition, it also means that you should keep your eyes rather far in front of the vehicle you drive in and observe a larger area. Thus, scanning helps to detect any risks faster. Your scanning usually gets better the more you drive.
