What should you do when using high beams?

  1. Dim them when you are close to other drivers

  2. Leave them on all the time

  3. Use them when there is no one else around

  4. Only use them on rural roads

The correct answer is: Dim them when you are close to other drivers

You should always dim your high beams when you are close to other drivers because the bright lights can be blinding and create dangerous conditions for both yourself and other drivers. Leaving them on all the time (option B) is not a safe option as it can cause visibility issues for other drivers and distract them from the road. Using them when there is no one else around (option C) may seem like a logical option, but it is important to always be prepared for unexpected situations where you may need to dim your high beams. Only using them on rural roads (option D) is also incorrect as there may still be other drivers or potential hazards present on these roads. Overall, dimming your high beams when other drivers are around is the safest and most considerate option.
