Explanation
In Indiana, headlights must be used between sunset and sunrise, and whenever visibility is less than 500 feet. Drivers are required to use their low beam headlights when they are within 500 feet of an approaching vehicle or when they are within 200 feet of the rear of another vehicle. This is a safety measure to prevent glare and ensure visibility for both drivers.
