Which lights must be used if you want to overtake at night?
Lighting
Explanation
To overtake at night, it is important to use **dipped beam headlights**. This is because **full beam headlights** can dazzle the driver of the vehicle you are going to overtake, especially through their rear-view mirrors. Dazzling reduces the other driver's visibility, which can be dangerous.
- **Dipped beam headlights**: Used to avoid dazzling other drivers during overtaking.
- **Full beam headlights**: Should be turned off when overtaking and only turned on again when there is no longer a risk of dazzling the other driver.
Therefore, when overtaking at night, it is safe and correct to use **dipped beam headlights** to ensure safe driving for you and others on the road.
