Your
Driving and
the
Road
Ona
freeway, use your
high beams only
in remote areas where you won’t
impair approaching drivers.
In some places,
like cities, using high beams
is
illegal.
When you follow another vehicle on a freeway or highway, use
low beams.
True, most vehicles now have day-night mirrors that enable the driver
to
reduceglare.Butoutsidemirrorsarenot
of
this type and

behindcanbotherthedriverahead.
A
Few
More
Night
Driving
Suggestions
Keep your windshield and all the glass on your vehicle clean-inside and out.
Glare at night is made much worse by
dirtontheglass.Eventheinside
of
the glass can build up a
film caused by dust. Tobacco smoke also makes
insideglasssurfacesveryfilmyandcanbeavisionhazard
if
it’sleftthere.
Dirtyglassmakeslightsdazzleandflashmorethancleanglasswould,
makingthepupils
of your eyes contract repeatedly. You might even want
to
keep a cloth and some glass cleaner
in your vehicle
if
you need
to clean
your glass frequently.
Remember that your headlights
light up far
less
of
a roadway when you are
in a turn or curve.
Keep your eyes moving;
that way,

Just as your headlights should be checked regularly for proper aim,
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.
