I would have thought that would reduce the ability to see. Interesting.

On top of my head, and taking the example of VR: being able to see my hands in VR and how they line up with the background improves my spatial perception. It gives me a sense of how far my hands are from my body and that helps me determine how far external objects are from my hands. I imagine it’s a similar effect when you light up your wheel and can track your hands on it while you look at the road.

Driving down dark country roads with headlights coming at you is when it's especially useful. Even if you don't have this issue give it a shot and report back the results.

I’ll give it a try next time I’m driving at night. I imagine my cell phone flashlight should be enough light?
