Question 4603

Under unfavorable lighting conditions, the headlights...

  1. allow you to perceive possible hazards only when driving with high beams.
  2. are not very useful.
  3. allow you to perceive possible hazards with enough time to react.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: allow you to perceive possible hazards with enough time to react.

When there's little natural light, properly adjusted headlights, whether on low or high beams, let you see hazards in time to react, provided you adjust your speed to the area they illuminate. In the image, your lights reveal the pedestrian at the right edge.
