Question 126 of 802

In which of the situations is the driver of vehicles obliged, at night, to change the main‑beam light to the dipped‑beam light?

A when the road is unlit;
B when driving in the urban area, on a road with several lanes per direction;
C in the situation where from the opposite direction a motor vehicle approaches, from a distance of at least 200 m.

Explanation

For answer  A 

The road traffic legislation does not provide that when, at night, the road is unlit you change the main‑beam light (long beam) to the dipped‑beam light (short beam).


For answer  B 

The road traffic legislation does not provide that when you drive at night in the urban area, on a road with several lanes per direction, you change the main‑beam light (long beam) to the dipped‑beam light (short beam)


For answer  C 

During the night, when approaching another vehicle that moves in compliance with the traffic rules from the opposite direction, you are obliged that from the distance of at least 200 meters to use the dipped‑beam lights (short beam), simultaneously with the reduction of speed. Thus, if you have in operation the main‑beam light (long beam), you have the obligation to change it to the dipped‑beam light (short beam).


The correct answer is: C
