That way one driver on the road (the oncoming driver) can still see to avoid a crash. Two blind drivers could easily run into each other. Stare at the right-hand edge of the road. Keeping your eyes there lets you stay on the road and keep some of your vision. My apologies to the author of the above if he meant simply flashing high beams briefly as a signal to the oncoming car.

>> As for the idiots coming in the opposite directon >> with their high beams on, give it right back to them. Ken Arndt gave me this suggestion, which works pretty well if you have a passenger in the front seat: Have the passenger hold the steering wheel while you grab your shotgun from the backseat. Proceed to blow the other car's headlights out. Frank Silbermann (Actually, Arndt never suggested this to me, but it is in character, no?)
