What to Do When the Oncoming Vehicle Uses High Beams?

[LaAxel]

You can alternately flash your high beams and low beams to give the other driver a hint and let them know. You can also wear anti-glare glasses to avoid the impact of high beams. Additionally, while driving, keep your eyes focused straight ahead but slightly towards the side not affected by the high beams.

I remember when I first started long-distance hauling, I often encountered this situation while driving at night. When an oncoming car flashed its high beams, I would immediately flick my high beams twice as a reminder. About eighty percent of the drivers would realize and switch to low beams. If that didn't work, I would ease off the accelerator to slow down, stay to the right side of the lane, and avoid staring directly into the bright light—focusing on the right-side road edge line instead. In winter, with more fog or rain, the glare is worse, so applying a good car window film helps. The key is not to get angry or impulsive—don't retaliate by flashing back, as it could lead to a collision. Stay calm, give yourself more reaction time, and only accelerate when it's safe. Fatigue at night makes mistakes more likely, so resting in advance is the best strategy.
