When passing through a signalized intersection at night, you should use low beam headlights. Below is an introduction to the use of lights at night: When to use low beam headlights: When driving on well-lit roads, you should use low beam headlights. Additionally, when following another vehicle, low beams should be used to allow the vehicle ahead to observe the situation behind through the rearview mirror. If you are within 150 meters of an oncoming vehicle during a meeting situation, you should also switch from high beam to low beam headlights. When to use high beam headlights: If driving at night on roads without streetlights, poor lighting, or encountering extreme conditions such as fog, sandstorms, rain, or snow, and visibility is low without any vehicles ahead, you should turn on high beam headlights and fog lights. When to alternate between high and low beam headlights: When driving at night through slopes, arched bridges, crosswalks, sharp curves, or when overtaking another vehicle, you should alternate between high and low beam headlights. This is mainly to alert other vehicles that your vehicle is preparing to pass through the road.
