Here are some tips on night driving. 0 0 Night Vision No one can seeas 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 to night. But if you're driving, don't wear sunglasses at night. They may cut a down on glare from headlamps, but they also make lot of things invisible. You can be temporarily blinded by approaching lights. It can take a second or two, or even several seconds, for your eyes to readjust to dark When you are faced the with severe glare (as from a driver who doesn't lower the high beams, or a vehicle with misaimed headlamps), slow down a little. Avoid staring directly into the approaching lights. Drive defensively. Don't drink and drive. Adjust your inside rearviewmirror to reduce the glare from headlamps behind you. Since you can't see as well, you may need to slow down and keep more spacebetween 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, pulloff the road in a safe place and rest. 0 0 0 0 0 I 4-16 ',
