Can I Report a Car Deliberately Using High Beams Behind Me?
2 Answers
You can report a car deliberately using high beams behind you. Hazards of using high beams: Using high beams for an extended period is dangerous and poses significant potential hazards. It is an extremely uncivilized driving habit. During nighttime driving, abusing high beams can cause temporary blindness, making it impossible to see the road ahead, pedestrians, barriers, etc., which can easily lead to accidents. Minor injuries or even fatalities may occur! The use of high beams is largely based on self-discipline. Reporting process: Reporting prolonged use of high beams is entirely feasible. However, it is best to have complete video evidence when reporting, with the license plate clearly visible in the footage, as this will greatly assist the police in their judgment.
I've also encountered this situation while driving on the highway - when the car behind intentionally flashes their high beams at you. That blinding glare makes it impossible to see anything, which is extremely dangerous and can easily cause accidents. According to traffic regulations, this behavior is a violation and can absolutely be reported to the police. I immediately pulled over to the side of the road, ensured my safety, and then called 122 to report it. The police arrived quickly to deal with that vehicle. When making a report, remember details like the license plate number of the following car, the location, and time of the incident - this increases the success rate. In daily driving, if you encounter similar situations, don't impulsively engage in road rage or slow down out of anger, as that can easily lead to accidents. Reporting to the police is the most reliable method, helping traffic police catch and educate or penalize violators. This also counts as maintaining road safety, making nighttime driving more secure for everyone.
