Here

are some

tips

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

slow down and keep

space between you and

other vehicles,

Slow down, especially on higher speed roads. Your

headlamps can light up only

much road ahead.

remote areas, watch for animals.

you’re

tired, pull

a safe place and rest.

You

can be temporarily blinded by approaching

headlamps.

can

take

second or two, or even several

seconds, for your eyes to readjust to the dark. When you

are faced with severe glare (as from a driver who

doesn’t lower the high beams,

a vehicle with

misaimed headlamps), slow down a

little.

Avoid staring

directly into the approaching headlamps.

Keep your windshield and all the glass

your vehicle

clean

inside

and

out. Glare at night is made much

worse by dirt on the glass. Even the inside of the glass

can build up a film caused by dust. Dirty glass makes

lights dazzle and flash more than clean glass would,

making the pupils of your eyes contract repeatedly.

Vision

one can see as well at night as

the daytime. But as

we get older these differences increase. A 50-year-old

driver may require at least twice as much light to see

the

same thing at night as

20-year-old.

What you do

the daytime can also affect your night

vision. For example, if you spend the day

bright

sunshine you are wise

wear sunglasses. Your eyes

will

have less trouble adjusting to night.

But

if you’re

driving, don’t wear sunglasses at night.

They

may cut

down on glare from headlamps, but

they

also

make

a lot

of things invisible.

Remember that your headlamps light up far less of a

roadway when you

are

a turn or curve. Keep your

eyes moving; that way, it’s easier to pick out dimly

lighted objects. Just

your headlamps should be

checked regularly for proper

aim,

should your

eyes

be examined regularly. Some drivers suffer from night

blindness

the inability to see

dim light

and aren’t

even

aware of it.
