I recommend watching this NOVA video on human perception. When doing any number of task, especially ones we do commonly we're using a ton of unconscious perception and prediction based upon our internal representation of physics and human modeling.

For example when I was younger I was noticing that I was commonly aware that a car was going to get over before it did so. I kept an eye out trying to determine why this was the case and I noticed two things. One is people commonly turn their head and check the mirrors before they even signal to get over. The other is they'll make a slight jerk of the wheel in the direction before making the lane change.
