When a commercial driver, driving at night, comes upon an oncoming vehicle with its bright lights on, the commercial driver should:
  1. Turn on their own bright lights.
  2. Honk their horn to alert the other driver.
  3. Look slightly toward the right lane markings and use them as a guide.
  4. Flash their headlights repeatedly.
Explanation
Answer: C - When a commercial driver driving at night comes upon an oncoming vehicle with its bright lights on, the commercial driver should look slightly to the right. This takes the driver's eyes out of direct contact with the bright lights. By looking slightly right, drivers can use the lane markings as a temporary guide to help them stay on the road and in their own lane. Turning on your own high beams will only create two half-blinded drivers instead of one.
