Night driving brings extra risk because it's harder to see, to tell how fast other traffic is moving and to judge how far away things are, which means drivers take longer to react. Using high beams whenever appropriate makes it easier to see ahead. Remember to switch to low beams for traffic approaching from the opposite direction. At dawn and dusk the sun is low on the horizon, creating glare and making it difficult for you to see others and for them to see you. In the rain, braking, turning, changing lanes and passing should be smooth and steady.
Fog makes it very hard to see and be seen.
Go slowly and cautiously, and use low beam headlights, not high beams. In strong winds , it's important to slow down and hold the steering wheel firmly. Winds can also bring blowing snow, dust and dirt. Snow, ice and freezing rain mean slippery roads, longer stopping distances and poor visibility. Slow down, and leave more space between vehicles.
