For example, on a national road outside built-up areas, where the maximum speed limit is 90 km/h, you drive at 85 km/h in rainy weather, which represents unfavorable atmospheric conditions. In this context, you expose yourself to a considerable risk and it means that you do not respect the basic rules of preventive conduct. Therefore, this answer variant cannot be correct, from the point of view of preventive conduct.
Preventive conduct in unfavorable atmospheric conditions represents driving with increased attention and with a speed that allows you to stop in safety conditions and avoid any danger.
High beam lights (long beam) will be used in normal atmospheric conditions depending on how illuminated the public road is. And at night they may be used only if from the opposite direction no other vehicle approaches at less than 200 meters and in front, in the same direction, no other vehicle is driving at less than 100 meters. The presence of unfavorable atmospheric conditions does not allow the permanent use of high beam lights (long beam). Therefore, this answer variant cannot be correct, from the point of view of preventive conduct.
The correct answer is: B
OUG* - Article 48
