Weather, Visibility & EmergenciesStandalone practice
At night you approach another vehicle from behind. At what distance must you first stop using high beams?
At night blue A follows silver B in an enlarged detail marked not to scale; there is no scaled overview or beam-response marker.
Correct answer: 300 feet.
Why
Dim high beams when approaching another vehicle from behind within 300 feet. The separate oncoming-vehicle distance is 500 feet. Use low beams sooner if needed to avoid glare.
