The most enlightened among us are those most aware of the simple fact that they have no clue.

Does a dog have the Buddha-nature?

I acknowledge i am not the best, in fact little more than a learner but n00b? Harsh

That's a good start....
But you should ALWAYS be using your eyes.
And on roads you 'know well'...do you? Have you ridden them hundreds of times, in all conditions, at all times of the day/night/year. 'Know the road well' is a loose term we all use, but few of us (me included) can say it for sure and certain. Complacency beckons, and it is a killer.

One day, as Manjusri stood outside the gate, the Buddha called to him, "Manjusri, Manjusri, why do you not enter?" Manjusri replied, "I do not see myself as outside. Why enter?"

McDuck, I think, needs to read some Keith Code.

McDuck, sit, with your eyes closed.

Start a stopwatch in your hand.

Ride the road in your mind.

Click the stopwatch again as you reach the end of the road.

Then, go and ride the road in reality.

If the times differ, you do not know the road well.
