We must make the difference between the following two situations that we encounter in the questions from the tests:

• during the night, when approaching another vehicle that moves from the opposite direction, you are obliged that from the distance of at least 200 meters from it you use the low‑beam lights. concurrently with the reduction of the travel speed.
• during the night, when approaching another motor vehicle moving in front of you, in the same direction, you are obliged that from the distance of at least 100 meters from it you use the low‑beam lights, without it also being mandatory the reduction of the travel speed.

In the case of this question, considering that it is about a vehicle that moves from the opposite direction, at night, you are obliged that from the distance of at least 200 meters from it you use the low‑beam lights, concurrently with the reduction of the travel speed.
If at that moment you are moving with the high‑beam lights on, you must switch them to the low‑beam lights, in order not to disturb those in front, concurrently with the reduction of the travel speed.
If at that moment you are moving having on, instead of the low‑beam lights, the daytime running lights (DRL), you must switch on the low‑beam lights, concurrently with the reduction of the travel speed.

The correct answer is: C
