  2. B.When meeting or driving behind other traffic.
  3. C.When there is no oncoming traffic.
  4. D.When driving at less than 50 km/h.
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B. When meeting or driving behind other traffic.

When driving at night you should dip your headlights when you meet oncoming vehicles so that you do not dazzle them. And you should also dip your headlights when you are driving behind another vehicle so the driver is not dazzled by your lights in their mirror.
