Where is the Low Beam Light?
1 Answers
The switch for the low beam light is generally located on the left side of the dashboard, near the door. Turning it one notch activates the low beam. Below is some extended information about low beam lights: 1. The illumination distance of low beam lights is approximately 30-40 meters. Experiments have shown that when driving at 55 km/h at night, the stopping distance after immediately applying the brakes is exactly 30 meters. This means that if an object is detected within the low beam's illumination range and the brakes are applied immediately, there will be no gap between the vehicle and the object. 2. Function: Although low beam lights have an illumination distance of about 30 meters, they feature a very distinct beam cutoff line. Most vehicles' low beam lights measure an illumination distance of 30-40 meters, with the beam cutoff line located at around 12-18 meters. The area in front of the beam cutoff line is brightly lit, allowing clear identification of objects, and a clearly visible illuminated area of 2-3 meters in diameter on the ground. The area behind the beam cutoff line, extending 30-40 meters, primarily relies on ground-reflected light. This area can distinguish brightly colored objects, but stationary dark-toned objects on the road are not easily noticeable.
