Explanation
If an oncoming vehicle is using high beams, avoid looking directly into the bright headlights - they can temporarily blind you. Instead, look toward the right edge of your lane and use it as a guide to stay on course. Watch the vehicle out of the corner of your eye. Never try to retaliate by keeping your own high beams on, as this makes it harder for both drivers to see and increases the risk of a crash.
