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
chi& and drive.
Adjust your inside rearview
III~JTQ~ 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.
