Driving at Night
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
drink
aad
drive.
Adjust your inside rearview mirror 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.
