You're right. I confused the orders and contents. So, I'm going to explain my 
thought again.

The 1), 2), 3) is just the action unit for focus. Just ignore the order in the 
case of human thought. 
On the other hand, 2) should be done in the driver first. And 1), 3) are 
happened at the same time in the driver.

I intend to say, the each focus action unit is the same with human thought and 
driver,
even though the procedure order is different between the human and driver.

Sorry to confuse you.
