Question 7512
In which of the following situations is it prohibited to use high-beam headlights?
- When the vehicle is stopped or parked.
- To warn other road users of a possible hazard.
- When driving through tunnels with insufficient lighting.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: When the vehicle is stopped or parked.
You must not use high beams when your vehicle is stopped or parked, even briefly. In a poorly lit tunnel, they may be required, and flashing them at very short intervals without blinding anyone can warn others of a hazard. In the image, the passenger car parked next to the sidewalk has its high beams on, which is not allowed.
