Are you obliged to use the low-beam lights in this situation?

Show the correct answer

Correct answer

YES

Explanation

In the video you are driving at night on a road lit by street lamps, you pass sign D-43 "end of built-up area", and vehicles are coming from the opposite direction. You are obliged to use dipped headlights. The answer is: yes.

The Road Traffic Act requires the driver to use dipped headlights when driving in conditions of normal visibility; from dusk to dawn on unlit roads you may use main beam instead, as long as you do not dazzle others. This road is lit and cars are coming from the opposite direction, so main beam is out of the question, and daytime running lights may be used only during the day. You switch to main beam only on an unlit section with no oncoming traffic.

Legal basis: Art. 51 para. 1, 2 and 3 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
