As darkness falls and Hanoi’s streets come alive with traffic, using your car’s low beam headlights correctly on bustling Nguyễn Trãi Street not only ensures your safety but also demonstrates responsible driving.

While using low beam headlights seems simple, there are important things to keep in mind. This guide from XE TẢI HÀ NỘI will help you understand how to use them effectively and safely.

When and Why to Use Your Low Beam Headlights

Introduction

Low beam headlights provide close-range illumination with white or yellowish light. They have a lower angle and narrower beam than high beams.

Purpose

  • Illuminate the road in darkness or limited visibility: Low beams help you see the road clearly in low-light conditions.
  • Increase visibility to other vehicles: Low beams help oncoming and following vehicles see your car.
  • Use in urban areas and densely populated areas: Low beams don’t blind oncoming drivers, making them suitable for use in populated areas.

Precautions When Using Low Beam Headlights

When to Use:

  • During rain or fog: Reduced visibility requires low beams for better visibility.
  • When driving in tunnels or on winding mountain roads: Use low beams to enhance visibility.

When Not to Use:

  • Avoid using low beams when facing oncoming traffic on narrow roads: This can blind oncoming drivers and cause accidents.
  • Avoid continuous use of low beams when unnecessary: This can be bothersome to other drivers and reduce bulb lifespan.
