Question 4579

The red vehicle...

  1. must switch from high beams to low beams when meeting the green vehicle.
  2. must keep driving with its high beams on through the curve.
  3. must turn off its lights to avoid blinding the driver of the green vehicle.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: must switch from high beams to low beams when meeting the green vehicle.

The red vehicle must switch from high beams to low beams as soon as it could blind the green vehicle's driver, even if the green vehicle doesn't do the same, and must not switch back to high beams until it has passed. Turning the lights off at night is prohibited and would leave the red vehicle's driver unable to see or be seen.
