Explanation
The main reason driving at night is more difficult than during the day is reduced visibility. Your ability to see ahead is limited by the reach of your headlights. Use high beams when driving in open or rural areas with little traffic, but remember that even with high beams, you should drive at a slower speed than during the day. Always switch to low beams when approaching other vehicles or pedestrians to avoid blinding them.
