Observation, Speed & SpaceStandalone practice
You are driving on a dark rural highway at night with your low beams on because other traffic is nearby. How should you choose your speed?
A drives on a dark rural road with a short low-beam pool of light ahead. The rest of the road fades into darkness.
Correct answer: Drive at a speed that lets you stop within the distance your headlights light up.
Why
At night you can see only as far as your headlights reach, and deer may cross the road. If your stopping distance is longer than the lit area, you are overdriving your headlights. Use high beams on open highways when no one is near, and keep your windshield clean to reduce glare.
