Weather, Visibility & EmergenciesStandalone practice
You are driving at night on a dark two-lane highway when your headlights suddenly go out. What should you do?
Correct answer: Ease off the gas, begin to brake, and try the headlight switch and the high beams.
Why
If the switch and high beams do not help, turn on your emergency flashers, turn signals or fog lights so that others can see you. Stay calm and picture where the road goes while you slow down. Pull completely off the road as soon as you safely can, and do not drive on until the lights are repaired.
