Questions Learners Have About Dimming Headlights

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Dimming Headlights, including how questions match the official theory exam in Sweden, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

When should I dim my headlights for oncoming traffic in Sweden?

In Sweden, you should switch from high beam to dipped beam when you risk dazzling the driver of an oncoming vehicle, or when you yourself are irritated by their lights. This ensures safety for both parties. Remember to switch back to high beam immediately after passing them, if appropriate.

Do Swedish rules require me to dim my headlights when driving behind another vehicle?

Yes, if your high beams are likely to dazzle the driver of the vehicle in front through their mirrors, you must switch to dipped beam. This applies even if they are far ahead, as modern mirrors can still reflect glare.

Should I dim my headlights for pedestrians according to Swedish traffic rules?

No, according to Swedish regulations, you should generally NOT dim your headlights for pedestrians. It is crucial to maintain full visibility of pedestrians to ensure their safety, especially in dark conditions. Only dim if a pedestrian is also driving a vehicle that you might dazzle, like a bicycle with a powerful light.

What is the correct headlight usage on a well-lit road in Sweden?

On roads with sufficient lighting, such as those with street lights, you should use dipped beam (halvljus). High beams are generally not necessary and could dazzle other road users if the road is well-lit.

When is it appropriate to switch back to high beam after dimming?

You should switch back to high beam precisely when you meet (pass) the other vehicle. This ensures you regain maximum visibility as soon as possible without dazzling them.
