与朋友早起出去游玩，我开车，此时天还没亮，走401高速。朋友路熟，叫我别开GPS了，听他指引路线。他并说：别太依赖GPS,如果GPS突然坏了，那咋开车啊？我性子有点急，经常问：哪一个出口，出口到了没有？他就告诉我：你看旁边的招牌，蓝色表示前方有这个路口，但是还有点远，下一个路口不是这个路口；而绿色的招牌是告诉你这个路口快到了，下面还有公里数显示，这个时候就要注意行车速度了。唉，开了这么多年的车，我还没有意思到这个名堂呢。长知识了。
此时，朋友也问我：夜灯开了没有？我说开了啊？我就问：那个强的远灯干啥用？他告诉我：可以看得远，且清楚，但是当对面车开近时，一定要关闭强的远灯(补充：对面车150米之内及后面的跟车60米之内）。一路谈论，出了401高速，上了乡间高速路，没有隔离带，一辆对面开过来的车子在快接近我时用强灯照射了一下。我说：这家伙咋这么坏啊？朋友问我：你的大灯关了没有？我查看了一下，说：是开着的。朋友说：那是别人在告诫你。我说：还真不能论断人，自己做错了，应该检讨。
开车以前也是在驾校学习过驾驶规则的，可惜有些忘了，或者没有理解，或者没有学会操作汽车上的这些设备，这次又长知识受教训了。
为了写此文，到官方网站查看了一下规则，那里写的更全面，详细。粘贴如下：
Turn on headlights at night and in poor conditions
Headlights enable you to see the roadway in front of your vehicle when visibility is poor, as well as making your vehicle visible to others. Your vehicle’s headlights must shine a white light that can be seen at least 150 metres in front and is strong enough to light up objects 110 metres away. You must also have red rear lights that can be seen 150 metres away and a white light lighting the rear licence plate when headlights are on. Headlights are equipped with the option to use a high beam to enhance vision further down the roadway and the use of a low beam when you are near other vehicles to minimize the glare of your headlights onto others. When you use high-beam headlights, remember to switch to low beams within 150 metres of an oncoming vehicle. Use your low beams when you are less than 60 metres behind another vehicle unless you are passing it. These rules apply to all roads, including divided ones.
Turning your headlights on activates other required light systems, such as your parking lights, tail lights and rear-licence plate light. Daytime running lights, which are often another mode of your headlights or can be a separate lighting system, are specifically designed to make your vehicle more visible during times of good light conditions, and are automatically activated when your vehicle is in operation and your headlight switch is turned to off.
When driving your vehicle, headlights are required to be turned on between one-half hour before sunset and one-half hour after sunrise, and any other time of poor light conditions, such as fog, snow or rain, which keeps you from clearly seeing people or vehicles less than 150 metres away. Please see the section ondriving at night and in bad weather. Don’t drive with only one headlight or with lights that are not aimed properly. Have your full lighting system checked regularly, keep them clean, and replace burned-out bulbs as soon as possible.
Parking lights are only for parking. In low light, use your headlights, not parking lights.
Your daytime running lights are not to be used as headlights during poor lighting conditions. They provide an inappropriate form of light that may cast glare onto others or deactivate other required light systems, such as tail lights. Daytime running lights are only to be used during good light conditions to enhance the visibility of your vehicle. If your vehicle is not equipped with daytime running lights, you should turn your headlights on to provide similar visual enhancement.
Driving with your vehicle’s full lighting system set to automatic is recommended, if your vehicle is equipped with this option. This will better ensure that the appropriate lighting system is being used. You should also monitor the activation and operation of your vehicle’s full lighting system at all times to ensure that appropriate lighting is being provided.
