0 0 0 0 Adjust your inside rearview mirror to reduce the glare from headlamps behind you. Since you can't see a s well, you may need to slow down and keep more space between you and other vehicles. Slow down, especially on higher speed roads. Your headlamps can light up only so much road ahead. In remote areas, watch for animals. If you're tired, pull off the road in a safe place and rest. Night Vision No one can see as well at night as in the daytime. But as we get older these differences increase. A 50-year-old driver may require at least twice as much light to see the same thing at night as a 20-year-old. What you do in the daytime can also affect your night vision. For example, if you spend the day in bright sunshine you are wise to wear sunglasses. Your eyes will have less trouble adjusting t o night. But if you're driving, don't wear sunglasses at night. They may cut down o n glare from headlamps, but they also make a lot of things invisible. You can be temporarily blinded bv approaching lights. It can take a second or two, or even several seconds, for your eves to readjust to the dark. When YOU are faced with severe glare (as frim a driver who doesn't lower the high beams, or a vehicle with misaimed headlamps), slow down a little. Avoid staring directly into the approachinglights. Keep your windshield and all the glass on your vehicle clean -- inside and out. Glare atnight is made much worse by dirt on the glass. Even the inside of the glass can build up a film caused by dust. Dirty glass makes lights dazzle and flash more than clean glass would, making the pupils of your eyes contract repeatedly. Remember thatyour headlamps light up far less of a roadway whenyou are in a turn or curve. Keep your eyes moving; that way, it's easier to pick out dimly lighted objects. Justas your headlamps should be checked regularly for properaim, so should your eyes be examined regularly. Some drivers suffer from night blindness -- the inability to see in dim light -- and aren't even aware of it. 4- 3.7
