Fog lights must be turned on when driving in foggy conditions. Below are the usage guidelines for car light signals: 1. Overtaking or when the vehicle ahead doesn't move after the traffic light turns green: Corresponding light signal: Flash the headlights once or twice. When waiting at an intersection, if the vehicle ahead doesn't move after the light turns green, the vehicle behind usually takes some action to give a hint. You can flash the headlights once or twice to remind the driver ahead, but avoid doing it too frequently. The same applies when overtaking—appropriately flash the headlights once or twice to alert the driver ahead to yield or pay attention. 2. Encountering blinding high beams during nighttime driving: Corresponding light signal: Flash the headlights twice. With technological advancements, more and more vehicles on the road are equipped with xenon headlights. Flash the headlights twice from a distance to remind the oncoming vehicle to switch to low beams when passing. If there's no response to the flashing, you can also briefly turn on the high beams and then quickly turn them off to remind the other driver to adjust their lights. 3. Alerting another driver to your vehicle's condition: Corresponding light signal: Flash the headlights three times, accompanied by a horn. While driving, if you notice that the vehicle ahead has an unclosed door or significantly underinflated tires, you can flash the headlights three times in succession. Once the driver ahead notices the lights, flash them three more times.
