In a sentence

まえ前frontをみて見てlook

Look ahead

How it works

を (object) marks what is looked at — 前まえ (front), here meaning "ahead". The verb sits in its て (te-form) form, 見てみて (look), which on its own works as a soft command: "look ahead" or "watch where you're going". Dropping the rest of the request leaves it casual and direct.
