It is important to know that different rules apply to using drivingbeam. It is a bright light that can dazzle other traffic participants, potentially leading to accidents. The light should not be used throughout the entire day, and there are specific rules to adhere to.
Rules on driving lights
As already mentioned, a driving beam is very similar to the main beam of a passenger car. This means that you have to take into account different rules with regard to the lighting. High beams can blind other road users, which can lead to accidents. The high beam may only be used in the evenings and at night. This is only permitted when there are no other road users in the vicinity. You are not allowed to drive right up to someone, nor are you allowed to drive right behind them. It is not recommended to use high beam when it is foggy, as visibility is reduced even more when using high beam. It is very useful when you are driving on a road without streetlights. Then the drivingbeam gives you a well lit environment.
