Adjusting the dipped-beam head-
lamps to left-hand or right-hand
traffic
The symmetrical dipped-beam headlamps
are required when travelling in countries
where vehicles are driven on the opposite
side of the road to that in which the vehicle
is registered. Unlike the asymmetrical
dipped-beam headlamps, these headlamps
do not dazzle oncoming traffic. Symmetrical
dipped-beam headlamps provide less illu-
mination to the edge of the carriageway.
