5 Times You Should Dim The Headlights Of Your Car – VIS by AutoJoshNG: 6:13pm On Sep 03, 2019
According to VIS, these are the five times you should dim your headlights while driving.

1. When approaching vehicles within 150 meters so as not to blind the driver
2. When following closely (within 60 meters) behind another vehicle.
3. When driving on lighted roads
4. When driving in rain, fog, snow, or smoke.
5. When vision is reduced to less than 60 meters.



If you’re a driver, you’ll admit it’s not a good experience to have a vehicle’s full beam into your eyes. It can blind you momentarily and any mishap can occur within that space of time.

Let’s be considerate while driving.

But Lagos Government said it’s an offence when you are driving at night without full light undecided
Law will just contradict another grin

Worst behaviour from majority drivers in Lagos. They just don't know how to use their head lamp while driving. Thanks autojosh

Port-Harcourt drivers will use their halogen light to finish you even when it rains.

It can only work in a country where there is street light to support motorists in motion but Nigeria where there’s no street lights and big potholes on the roads, how do you expect them to see the road clearly with dim lights...

All dis stupid people driving high posh cars would never want to dim their light, they will want to show u how powerful their headlamps are by keeping it high, but they forget that if the other driver loses tracks he could run into him and his high posh car will damage more and nothing anyone can do, is accident

most times when I’m driving into my street at night I go as low as using fog light since the park light comes on while it’s on.
