How to Properly Use High Beams?
1 Answers
High beam usage: High beams should only be used when there are no other lighting facilities on the road and no vehicles approaching from the opposite direction. High beams are extremely bright, and their misuse can severely impair the vision of oncoming drivers, potentially leading to traffic accidents. Therefore, it is crucial to use high beams correctly. Additional guidelines include: 1. On roads without central barriers or center lines, do not use high beams when meeting an oncoming vehicle within 150 meters. 2. Avoid using high beams when meeting non-motor vehicles on narrow bridges or roads without central barriers or center lines. 3. Do not use high beams when turning at intersections controlled by traffic signals. 4. In low visibility conditions such as at night without streetlights, poor illumination, or during fog, rain, snow, or dust, refrain from using high beams when following another vehicle closely in the same direction. 5. When overtaking at night, alternate between high and low beams to alert the vehicle ahead. 6. High beams are not recommended in well-lit urban areas.
