Precautions for driving on the highway at night include: the use of turn signals, the use of high beams, keeping a distance from large trucks, etc. Here are the relevant details: 1. Turn signals: Visibility is poor at night, and the following vehicle often cannot anticipate the driving behavior of the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead suddenly changes lanes when the distance is very close, the following vehicle may not have enough time to brake, leading to a rear-end collision. 2. High beams: Never use high beams when overtaking, as the vehicle ahead will see only a blinding white light in the rearview mirror, making it difficult to judge the distance from the following vehicle, which can easily lead to dangerous situations during overtaking. 3. Keeping a distance from large trucks: There are quite a few large trucks on the highway at night. Some drivers change lanes without considering the smaller vehicles behind them, so it is essential to use your lights to alert them when overtaking a large truck. At night, never drive behind a large truck.
