Questions that are easy to get wrong

If you are using high beams, within what distance of an oncoming vehicle must you switch to low beams?

  1. 300 m
  2. 200 m
  3. 250 m
  4. 150 m (Correct answer)

Explanation: Switch to low beams within 150 m of an oncoming vehicle so the glare does not blind its driver.

When you follow another vehicle, you must use low beams once you are within what distance of it?

  1. 30 m
  2. 60 m (Correct answer)
  3. 120 m
  4. 150 m

Explanation: Use low beams when you are less than 60 m behind another vehicle (unless you are passing), because high beams in its mirrors cause glare.

Which headlights should you use when driving in fog?

  1. Low beams (Correct answer)
  2. Parking lights only
  3. Daytime running lights only
  4. High beams
