When driving at night, you should slow down and:
|
Follow the vehicle ahead more closely to avoid glare from oncoming headlights.
|
|
|
Come to a complete stop whenever there's oncoming traffic.
|
|
|
Use high beams whenever possible, but never when there's oncoming traffic.
|
|
|
Use high beams until other drivers dim their lights.
|
Explanation
High beams are ideal to improve visibility at night or under poor weather conditions, however they are so strong that they may blind other drivers. Drivers should therefore switch to low beam headlights when they are closely following a vehicle, or if there is oncoming traffic.
