What lights to use when driving straight through an intersection at night?
1 Answers
When driving straight through an intersection at night, alternate between high and low beams. According to relevant regulations, motor vehicles should alternate between high and low beams when passing through sharp curves, slopes, arch bridges, crosswalks, or intersections without traffic signal control at night. When driving at night with no streetlights, poor lighting, or encountering low visibility conditions such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, motor vehicles should turn on headlights, position lights, and tail lights, but must not use high beams when following another vehicle. When overtaking at night, turn on the turn signal in advance and observe the vehicles behind. If the following vehicle is too close, it is not recommended to signal before overtaking, as this may catch the following vehicle off guard. To prevent the vehicle ahead from changing lanes during overtaking, always try to alert them by honking or quickly switching between high and low beams to draw their attention.
