HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS On most regional and remote roads there are very few or no streetlights. Accordingly, you are permitted to use high beam on your headlights so you can see where you are driving. At a close range, the high beam can dazzle other drivers. This may cause crashes. High beam is not permitted if: • you are driving less than 200m behind a vehicle • an oncoming vehicle is within 200m – or its headlights are ‘dipped’ (i.e. the high beam is not activated). Fog lights can be used in foggy conditions, dust storms or heavy rain. Do not drive with headlights and fog lights on at the same time.

Penalties apply for breaches.
