|
Low beam headlights.
|
|
|

|
|

High beam headlights.
|
|

Explanation
Driving at night is more difficult than driving during the day. Headlights do not let you see as far ahead as you can in daylight, and the glare of oncoming headlights makes seeing the road more difficult. Use low-beam headlights when driving in cities and towns, except on streets where there is no lighting, and switch to low-beam headlights whenever you meet an oncoming vehicle to avoid blinding the other driver. Headlights must also be on any time conditions make it difficult to see people or other vehicles.
