Can sunlight become a serious risk while driving?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Direct sunlight in the eyes is an important risk factor for road safety. Moments such as sunrise, sunset or leaving a tunnel can cause sudden glare that temporarily blinds the driver and prevents them from perceiving obstacles or signs in time. On a moped it is advisable to wear a helmet with a visor or screen that offers sun protection and anti-glare properties. Claiming that the sun is a constant danger under any circumstances is incorrect, because it does not always fall within the direct line of sight. And saying that with sunlight visibility is always perfect is also false: excessive or direct light does not improve vision, but can momentarily cancel it out.
