In this situation, can you use high-beam lights?

Description

Art. 3 para. 1 and art. 51 para. 3 pt. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137)
Explanation

Correct answer: No

No, in this situation you must not use main-beam headlights because another vehicle is approaching from the opposite direction. According to art. 51 para. 3 of the Road Traffic Act, in such a situation you must switch from main-beam to dipped headlights so as not to dazzle the oncoming driver. Dazzling another driver creates a very significant hazard in road traffic.
