Explanation
When driving at night, high beam headlights provide the best visibility. However, drivers should not use high beams within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle or 300 feet of the vehicle ahead. It is also advisable to use low beam headlights in fog, as high beams can reflect off the fog and further reduce visibility.
