Question 4804

Xenon headlights...

  1. improve road illumination and reduce driver eye strain.
  2. illuminate the road worse, but reduce driver eye strain.
  3. increase driver eye strain.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: improve road illumination and reduce driver eye strain.

Xenon headlights give off a brighter, whiter light than halogen headlights, similar to daylight. You can see the road better and farther ahead, and your eyes get less tired because you do not have to strain as much to make out what is ahead.
