High traffic congestion in the daytime forces motorists to make business trips at night. Driving at night is made more difficult by the low illumination of the road. In addition, the glaring effect of the headlights of the oncoming traffic flow affects. If the weather is damp, light rays are reflected off the small water droplets in the air, which also reduces the illumination of the road.

If you occasionally make night trips, the following material will help you drive more reliably at night.

Always keep your windshield clean when driving at night. Road dirt on the glass significantly reduces nighttime visibility. Although, looking from the interior, the glass seems to be quite clean.

Do not forget to switch the light when an oncoming traffic convoy approaches. When the distance from the first oncoming vehicle is reduced to several meters, you can turn on the high beam, it will not blind anyone. At the same time, road lighting is preserved.

To avoid glare, do not look into oncoming headlights. Try to direct your gaze towards the right shoulder. The headlights of your car are also distributed.

If the light of the oncoming column has blinded you without changing lanes, smoothly stop your vehicle.

For short stops, do not leave your vehicle on the road. Accident statistics annually register a large number of collisions with vehicles left on the roadway.

When driving on a wet road, stop the vehicle periodically to clean the headlamp windows. Do not wipe the included headlights with snow. This may cause cracks in the glass.

If heavy snowfall creates a dull spot in the headlights that interferes with road vision, turn on the dipped beam for improved visibility.

Before bending the road, pay close attention to the luminous flux emitted by oncoming traffic. If you notice that one of the cars is driving with a high beam, blink its headlights. The driver of the oncoming car will understand that he is blind and will switch the light.

A car enthusiast driving at night is in serious danger of falling asleep while driving. Coffee, which is usually consumed by many drivers, invigorates for a very short time. Then I want to sleep even more. We recommend taking food with you to chew. It can be nuts, crackers, cookies. Anything that effectively accelerates sleep. Stop the car periodically to do warm-up exercises. Be especially careful at dawn, when you are especially sleepy.

If you frequently travel at night, put reflective outerwear and an electric torch powered by a self-contained battery in your trunk, which must always be charged.
