Night time driving
1. Drive more slowly at night than in the
daytime, for the visual range is restricted
at night.
2. Don't overtake other vehicles at night.
Darkness bothers your sense of speed
and hinders your judgement on the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
3. Don't use the high headlight beam
unless its use is inevitable. Its dazzle
may blitz the driver of the oncoming
vehicle, thus causing an accident.
4. Always keep the window glasses clean.
Don't operate the windshield wiper when
the windshield glass is dry or the wiper
blade and glass may get damaged.
