This pair of studies investigated steering in the absence of continuous visual information. In a driving simulator, participants steered a curving path that was displayed either continuously or intermittently. Optic flow conditions were manipulated to alter the nature of the heading information with respect to the path being steered. Removing or biasing heading information had little effect on steering even during long and frequent path occlusions as long as turn rate was available. This demonstrates that participants can use intermittent views of the path to plan their steering actions and optic flow to accurately update vehicle turns with respect to that path.
