Practice question

When following another vehicle at night, you should switch to low beam headlights before you get within what distance of it?

  1. 30 metres
  2. 45 metres
  3. 60 metres
  4. 75 metres

Answer: C — 60 metres

When following another vehicle at night, it's important to switch to low beam headlights before you get within a distance of 60 metres. This is because low beams provide better visibility and reduce the risk of blinding the driver ahead of you. Option A (30 meters) and Option B (45 meters) are not far enough to provide the necessary visibility and distance from the other vehicle. Option D (75 meters) is too far and may reduce your own visibility and reaction time.
