"Light language" can only be used when driving at night. Correct use of light language can avoid some accidents and can serve as a "reminder" and "warning".
1. The car in front does not move after overtaking or the green light turns on.
Corresponding light language: headlights flash once or twice
When waiting for a car at an intersection, you will inevitably encounter the situation where the car in front is motionless when the light turns green. Maybe it is because the newbie is nervous and slow to start, or maybe he is distracted waiting for the light. At this time, instead of honking the horn wildly, it is better to flash the headlights to give a friendly reminder to the vehicle in front that it is time to start. The same goes for overtaking. You can flash your headlights once or twice appropriately to remind the driver of the car in front to avoid or pay attention.
2. Encountering strong lights when meeting cars at night
Corresponding light language: headlights flash twice
At night, when you are far ahead of a meeting car, flash your headlights twice to remind the other party to switch lights when meeting another car. If the flashing lights have not received a response, you can also directly turn on the high beam and turn it off quickly to remind the driver of the oncoming vehicle to change the lights.
3. When encountering vehicles merging
Corresponding light language: The headlights flash "Agree", the headlights flash continuously "Reject"
It is very dangerous to compete with each other in merging or intersections. Cars that need to merge must not forcefully change lanes directly. When a car prompts that a lane change is needed, should you agree to the other party's lane change or reject the other party's request? It is required that the car behind must give the other party a clear reminder. If the car behind agrees to change lanes, it will slow down and give way and flash its headlights to express "agree"; if the car behind does not agree or the conditions do not allow it, it will flash its headlights several times to express "rejection".
4. Surprised by heavy fog on the way
Corresponding light language: Turn on fog lights, low beam lights, and corridor lights to ensure safety. In severe cases, turn on double flashers.
When driving in foggy weather, in addition to slowing down and driving slowly, you also need to use your car lights correctly. Do not turn on the high beam, because the high beam can easily produce a wide range of refraction in foggy weather, which can easily cause safety hazards!
5. You need to be careful when entering or exiting alleys or blind spots.
Corresponding light language: flash headlights three times, auxiliary honk
When driving in alleys, alleys or places prone to blind spots, oncoming cars or pedestrians cannot sense the oncoming traffic at the entrance of the alley or alley. Therefore, if you need to enter the driver's seat, it is best to flash your headlights three times at the entrance of an alley. To remind oncoming vehicles or pedestrians to pay attention.
Car light language is like the hand gestures of traffic police. It is a universal silent language. Every car driving on the road can communicate through light language.
