Is 9005 for Low Beam or High Beam?
1 Answers
9005 is generally used for high beam. Here are the specific details about using lights during night driving: 1. Under normal circumstances: When driving at night, only the low beam needs to be turned on, and the turn signal should be used when making a turn. Urban roads are well-lit, so there is no need to use high beam. However, in areas with poor lighting, high beam should be used. 2. When encountering oncoming traffic: If you are using low beam, no action is needed regarding the lights. If high beam was previously on, it should be switched to low beam in advance. Otherwise, the high beam may prevent the oncoming driver from judging the width of your vehicle, potentially causing an accident. After passing the oncoming vehicle, decide whether to switch back to high beam based on road conditions. 3. When driving straight through an intersection: Low beam should be used. When passing through an uncontrolled intersection, slow down and alternate between high and low beams as a signal. 4. When overtaking: Turn on the turn signal in advance, then honk and quickly switch between high and low beams to alert the vehicle ahead. After confirming that the vehicle in front has no intention of changing lanes, proceed with overtaking quickly. Avoid driving side by side with the other vehicle for an extended period. After completing the overtaking maneuver and ensuring sufficient distance from the overtaken vehicle, use the turn signal to move back to the original lane.
