"Overdriving your headlights" means you're driving so fast that you can't stop within the distance illuminated by your headlights. This is dangerous because you may not see pedestrians, animals, or other hazards in time to avoid them. At night, reduce your speed and avoid overdriving your headlights. Always drive at a speed that allows you to stop safely within the area lit by your headlights.
