What is the 'SEE' strategy used by motorcyclists?

SEE stands for Search, Evaluate, Execute — the core of motorcycle defensive riding. Search: actively scan the road for hazards — other vehicles, pedestrians, road surface issues, potential conflicts. Look 12-15 seconds ahead, scan mirrors every 5-10 seconds, and check intersections, driveways, and parked cars for movement. Evaluate: think about what could happen — could that car turn left in front of you, could that pothole be deeper than it looks, could that driver merge without seeing you. Execute: take action to reduce risk — adjust speed, change lane position, signal early, cover the brake. SEE is continuous; an experienced rider runs the loop constantly without consciously thinking about it.
