RR-032 — Dipping When Following
Question
You are following closely behind another vehicle at night. What should your headlights be on?
A. Bright (main) beam to see further B. Dipped (low) beam so you do not dazzle the driver ahead C. Switched off to save the battery
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Use dipped beam when following closely so you do not dazzle the driver ahead via their mirrors. Main beam dazzles, and driving without lights at night is unlawful and dangerous.
