Question: At night you should:

Answer options:

• Use high beams in cities ✅ Look slightly to the right of oncoming high beams
• Stare into oncoming lights
• Turn off dash lights

Correct answer: Look slightly to the right of oncoming high beams

Explanation: To avoid temporary blindness from oncoming headlights at night, safe-driving rules dictate looking slightly to the right edge of your lane. Staring directly into oncoming lights ruins night vision, while using high beams in well-lit cities is illegal and blinds other drivers. Turning off dashboard lights completely is unsafe because you must be able to monitor vehicle speed and gauges. Under Québec's Highway Safety Code, maintaining vision and lane positioning requires using the right shoulder line as a guiding reference when faced with bright glare. This concept is highly relevant for the SAAQ knowledge test, which frequently evaluates night driving safety strategies.
