Driving at Night
Night driving is more dangerous
than
day driving. One
reason is that some drivers are likely to be impaired
--
by
alcohol or
drugs,
with
night vision problems, or by
fatigue.
Here
are
some tips
on
night driving.

Drive defensively.
Don't
drink
and drive.
Adjust
your
inside rearview mirror to reduce the
glare from headlamps behind you.
Since
you
can't see
as
well, you may need to slow
down and keep more space between
you
and other
vehicles.
Slow down, especially on higher speed roads. Your
headlamps can light up only so much road ahead.
In remote areas, watch for animals.
If you're tired, pull off the road in a safe place
and rest.
