Will Auto Lights Turn on High Beams?
1 Answers
Auto lights will automatically determine whether to turn on low beams or high beams based on the situation, so auto lights can indeed turn on high beams. When the light dims while driving, the headlights will automatically turn on, and they will turn off when the light brightens. The activation of auto headlights has a delay—meaning the headlights will only turn on automatically within a few seconds after the light sensor detects dimming conditions. Below are the correct ways to use car lights: 1. Poorly lit roads: High beams can be used on roads with no streetlights or poor lighting. However, when approaching other vehicles or pedestrians, switch to low beams to avoid glare. 2. When needing to read road signs: If unfamiliar with the road and needing to check signs, high beams can be used briefly but should be quickly switched back to low beams. 3. When overtaking: Turn on the left turn signal in advance and alternate between high and low beams or use the horn to alert the vehicle ahead to yield. 4. When passing corners, curves, or unsignalized intersections: Alternate between high and low beams as a warning. 5. Driving through tunnels: Turn on high beams but switch to low beams when encountering oncoming traffic. 6. In urban areas with streetlights at night: Low beams must be used. 7. Driving in areas without streetlights at night or during dusk/dawn: Low beams must be turned on. 8. Obstructed visibility: During heavy fog, snow, or rain, low beams must be used even during the day if visibility is compromised.
