Explanation
When a vehicle is coming toward you at night with its high beams on, it can be challenging to see the road ahead due to the glare. In such a situation, avoid looking directly into the bright lights, as it can further impair your vision. Instead, you should focus your gaze ahead toward the right edge of your lane. By doing so, you can utilize the white stripe at the right edge of the pavement as a visual reference point.
