One of the keys to advanced driving is being able to read the road ahead and anticipating things, i.e observing lamp posts and telegraph poles in the distance and being able to gauge what way the road will bend, looking for gaps between hedges. If you can predict things you will be better served to react to them. Another key point is always driving so that you can stop safely, on your own side of the road, within the distance you can see to be clear.
