Is it "impolite" to drive on the highway with hi-beams on? (Poll updated)
Hey RFD,
I was wondering if driving on the highway with hi-beams will blind people the opposing traffic or the cars in front of you on their mirrors? Or do people regularly use high-beams on the highway? I've heard two conflicting sources of info so I thought I would clarify._______________The engine is the plane's heart, but the pilot is it's soul

who's the idiot that told you it was a good idea to use high beams in traffic? what was their stupid rationale (or lack thereof) behind this?

Yet another Yes vote when it should have been No. Bad OP!
Driving with highbeams on anytime traffic is coming at you or you're behind someone is stupid, dangerous, annoying, impolite and illegal. Reply With Quote

As with the 2 above, it's an offense under the Ontario HTA for failing to lower high beams to oncoming traffic. It'll get you a fine and a good few dermit points.
BTW, your poll question is flawed. Of course you can drive on the highway with high beams, but when there's oncoming traffic you must lower them._______________

As long as there is no oncoming traffic, yes, it is fine. If there is oncoming traffic, switch to low beams
