Driving safety and the importance of proper lighting
You should know that you’ve got many lights on your car, if you don’t then I suggest you stop driving right away.
When you are driving at night the use of your lights is extremely important. Humans are not designed to see in the dark, no matter how many carrots you eat your eyesight will never match that of your cat!
Urban areas and highways are often well lit, so minimising the need to use the full beam of your headlights.
Even when you’re driving somewhere that has fairly good lighting it is still important to utilise the side lights so that people can see you.
Whenever you’re driving in an area with poor lighting it is important to use your headlights in order to drive safely. Of course your headlights are not the only lights that should be used on your vehicle.
Your indicators should always be used so that people know where you’re going, brake lights and tail lights are also important.
In order for your lights to be effective you should make sure you maintain them properly. It’s a good idea to find out what type of bulb your car takes before you actually need it, many car parts stores stock spare bulb kits which you can keep in your vehicle.

The problem with bulbs is that they often blow when you first switch them on, they rarely blow while they are on. Could you imagine driving to the pub for a night out, without drinking of course! And then finding out that your cars bulb has blown. How would you get around this? Driving home without headlights is not ideal, in fact it’s down right dangerous! The good thing is that the odds of both bulbs blowing at the same time are basically nil, so you would still have one headlight to drive home with.
