Tasmania · Driver Knowledge Test · Road rules

When must you dip your high beams?

The answer

  • Never on country roads
  • Within 200 m of an oncoming vehicle or one you're following Correct
  • Within 500 m of any car
  • Only when flashed

Why that's the answer

Switch to low beam whenever another vehicle is within 200 metres — especially important on Tasmania's unlit rural roads.
