What should a driver do with high beams when approaching an oncoming vehicle?
Correct answer: Dim to low beams before coming within 500 feet of it.
Why
Dim high beams before coming within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle so the beam does not glare into the other driver’s eyes. Continue using headlights; do not switch all lights off. A separate 200-foot rule applies when following another vehicle, except while overtaking and passing.
