According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, fatal accidents are three times more common at night than during the day. The major reason for this is that humans cannot see in the dark, which is unsurprising. Ironically, some types of light, such as glare from very bright lighting, might exacerbate the condition. Other elements, though, contribute to the difficulty of driving at night. At Prestige Imports in North Miami Beach, FL, we have figured out the most common issues people have while driving at night, and we have come up with five top safety tips during night drives.

Broken headlights, on the other hand, can reduce vision and project glare onto oncoming cars.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Use High Beams Appropriately &#8211; <\/strong>High beams are useful in rural regions or on wide highways but remember to dim them when you are within 500 feet of an incoming car (so the other driver is not temporarily blinded). Do not use them if you are following another vehicle.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Check Out: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prestigeimports.com\/blog\/safe-driving-tips-for-teen-drivers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Safe Driving Tips for Teen Drivers<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Drive Slowly &#8211; <\/strong>Speeding-related collisions account for 37% of nighttime driving deaths, compared to only 21% during daytime hours.
