You are driving on a road using low-beam headlights because of a malfunction. What must you do?

  1. Stop the vehicle on the shoulder.
  2. Always drive on the shoulder.
  3. Drive at a speed that allows you to stop the vehicle within the illuminated area if necessary.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Drive at a speed that allows you to stop the vehicle within the illuminated area if necessary.

If a malfunction requires you to use less intense lighting, you must reduce your speed. This will allow you to stop within the space your lights let you see.
