I'm pretty confident in my interpretation on this one (unlike many other Circa songs).
I think this song is about society in general. People have lots of different partners, dress a certain way, act a certain way, all of the nuances of being part of a group. But Anthony is suggesting that nobody is auditing this practice. Trends and morals are drifting along without anyone "behind the wheel" and "keeping their ear to the ground" to see if what we're doing as a group is correct or right. Our only point of reference for proper behavior is other people, with no objectivity or street signs.
This hypothetical person judging our behavior is avoiding the crowds because he is the objective truth, unburdened by the opinions of people.
