High Beam or Low Beam on Highways at Night?

[DeFernando]

Use high beams on highways at night because there are barriers in the middle of the road that block the high beams while eliminating the risk of oncoming traffic. In urban areas, avoid using high beams as the lighting conditions are usually sufficient, and the high angle of the beams can easily dazzle oncoming drivers and pedestrians, impairing visibility and creating unsafe and impolite driving behavior. On highways or rural roads without streetlights, high beams can be used to expand the field of vision. However, when encountering oncoming vehicles, switch to low beams for safety and courtesy. Additionally, when driving at low speeds, the engine's power generation is insufficient, and the battery is in a state of negative charge, so using high beams may affect its lifespan.
