There are a few special driving techniques you can use for night driving:
  • If you see someone approaching or there is another car in front of you, switch to
    low-beam instead of high-beam headlights
    to avoid blinding other drivers.
  • Don’t look directly into oncoming headlights; instead, try to focus on the side of the road until the lights pass so that you don’t blind yourself.
  • Stay awake and alert at all times. Keep your eyes moving so that you can see and react to any potential hazards in your path.
