💡 Hint

Answer: ②, ③
Explanation
Under Article 37(2) of the Road Traffic Act and Article 20(1) of the Enforcement Decree, at night you must dim the headlights or point them downward when meeting oncoming traffic, and also point them downward when following right behind another vehicle. Paragraph 2 of the same article requires, in principle, keeping the beams down in busy traffic. Leaving high beams on dazzles other drivers and causes crashes.
