When following another vehicle at night, you should switch to low beam headlights before you get within what distance of it?

Switching to low beam headlights when following another vehicle at night is important for safety and visibility. The correct distance to switch to low beams is before you get within 60 meters. This guideline helps prevent blinding the driver ahead with your high beams, which can be dangerous and lead to accidents.

When you're too close with high beams on, the bright lights can reflect off the rearview mirror and impair the vision of the driver in front of you. Maintaining this distance allows for safe driving while not compromising the visibility of the other driver.
