Which statement about high beams and bicyclists is correct?
The answer
Answer: D. High beam lights should not be used at night when approaching an oncoming bicyclist because glare can blind the rider. Dim your headlights as you would for oncoming cars, since bright light can blind a bicyclist and make them lose control.
