When following another vehicle at night, dim your high beams when you are within:
- A.500 feet behind it
- B.300 feet behind it
- C.100 feet behind it
- D.50 feet behind it
Correct answer
B. 300 feet behind it
Why
Switch to low beams when you are within 300 feet of the vehicle ahead. Your high beams can glare in the other driver's mirrors.
