If you are driving at night and another vehicle blinds you with its high beams, what is the correct course of action?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is to reduce speed. According to general traffic regulations, when faced with glare that reduces visibility, the driver must reduce speed as much as necessary, even coming to a controlled stop if the road cannot be seen, to avoid the risk of collision or running someone over. Expert Tip: Do not brake abruptly (you could be rear-ended). Do not look at the lights: Avert your gaze towards the shadow area or the line on the right edge of the road to maintain your path. Never increase speed, as you would be driving 'blindly'.
