I am not 100% sure which “sense” this would be, but when I drive I can “feel” the texture of the road and intuit roughly how much traction I have. I’m not special, every driver does this, consciously or not.
I am not saying that you couldn’t do this with hardware, I am quite confident you could actually, but I am just saying that there are senses other than sight and sound at play here.

Fair enough if you're aiming for a lap record round a track, but otherwise you shouldn't be anywhere near the limit of traction of your tyres.
