When must you switch high-beam lights to low-beam lights?

Description

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

Correct answer: Always when there is a possibility of blinding the driver of the car in front of you.

In accordance with Art. 51 para. 3 of the Road Traffic Act, you must switch from main-beam headlights to dipped-beam headlights also when approaching a vehicle ahead of you. The strong light from the main beams can reflect in the mirrors of the preceding vehicle and dazzle its driver.
