Can I use low beam when driving at high speed at night? After listening to explanations of old driver, I broke out in a cold sweat!
Currently, cars are a common item of daily use in every family. Whether in cities or in countryside, we can always see a variety of cars on streets. But some people have a car, but this does not necessarily mean that they are very knowledgeable about cars, especially using some of car's functions in detail. Take, for example, problem of car lighting. It is often said that those who drive with high beams are "garbage" that harms people because intense light emitted by high beams temporarily blinds target driver's eyes. This is enough to cause a major traffic accident. Therefore, many people prefer to forget about high beam function and drive with low beam no matter where they are going. This is undoubtedly a manifestation of quality, but sometimes "good intentions can also lead to bad deeds."
Nowadays, many people prefer to turn on their low beams at high speeds when driving at night. Is it correct? After listening to old driver's explanation, I broke out in a cold sweat.
Running at high speed at night with low beams is definitely a very bad habit. Partly this kind of exploitation is due to influence of other people's remarks, and partly due to habit of ordinary roads brought to expressway.
People often ignore role of high beams because low beams are often used on city roads. High beam is characterized by high light intensity, strong light penetration and bright light, allowing you to see far. It will have a very good effect when used in some open areas or dark places. High speed at night certainly satisfies this condition.
During normal times, especially at night, there are not many cars on expressway, and due to cost issues, expressway has only fluorescent reflectors and no artificial lighting device. So ultimately light source at high speed still has to be provided by machine itself. The high beam is strong, and vision reflected by fluorescent plate will be clearer. If low beam is used, visible range of car owner at high speed will be greatly reduced. If there are some unexpected situations, it will be too late to respond.
That's why high beams are used. But there are exceptions to everything. As mentioned above, high beam will interfere with view of oncoming car owner. If a car passes at high speed, you need to switch high beam to low beam. This can be regarded as a good deed, which not only ensures health of others, but also benefits our physical and mental development.
