One thing I use often as a little riding technique to knowing my surroundings, has actualy come from my day to day job working on computer generated images and animation.
Doing what I do involves often complex physics and dealing with daylight systems and one thing learned is "shadows never lie".

Relating that back to my riding is simple....when in moderate/heavy traffic I often pay some attention to the light and shadows cast on the road ahead to get useful information for areas I can not physicaly see. That automaticaly tells me the locations and distances between surrounding cars....especialy when my view is blocked by other vehicles like a 4wd, truck or bus infront etc...

So far I've found it to be a very handy point of reference.
